PLAY INSTRUCTIONS:

- Black Out: Winner is first player to hit all 20 numbers. When a number is hit it is blacked out.

- 301: Player starts with 301 points. First player to reach zero points wins. Exceeding zero is a bust that turn is disregarded. Tray again next round.

- Poison 301: Like 301, but player can hit a number only one time per turn.

- 301 Pro Style: Like 301, but player must hit bullseye. Double or triple on last dart to win.
