Markets

Ladbrokes are usually one of the first bookies to declare prices for outright tournament betting so there’s always the option to get some value in the long-term ante post markets. In the case of the really big events such as the PDC World Championships, those odds will usually be available 12 months in advance of the next renewal.

Other long term tournament bets such as Nine Dart finish and Highest Checkout will also appear but these will be listed much closer to the start of the event. When those tournaments get underway, match betting is supplemented by a whole host of side markets including Correct Score, most 180s and many more.

At Ladbrokes, the only markets that tend to be unavailable are the more obscure ones such as the colour of the double that closes out the first leg. If you prefer to focus on the popular bets then there’s plenty of choice.

Ladbrokes Betting Odds

All of the main odds comparison sites will seek to include Ladbrokes as it gives them credibility. In turn, that means that we can easily check that we are getting top value from all of our darts betting. What you will find here is consistently good prices that are never out of step with the rest of the industry

Those strong prices can be found right across the board and if there is one market where Ladbrokes are really out on their own then it’s the Correct Score section. Frequently they are there with the highest industry prices in this market but to confirm, there is great value here across all areas of darts betting.

Events

Unlike some other bookmakers, Ladbrokes will not overlook the smaller events. Like all outlets, their main focus is on the PDC division and their markets will be more extensive for the top tournaments here including the World Championship and the Premier League.

Other events such as the Masters and the World Series will also receive wide coverage and all of the betting options that we’ve mentioned above should be made available for all the events on the PDC calendar.

Bdo Darts News

The BDO code isn’t overlooked however and although the standard in this division isn’t quite so high, the tournaments here still attract plenty of interest from the darts betting community. The BDO World Championships is played out at the start of January every year and there are smaller events taking place from then onwards. Happily, Ladbrokes are firmly behind both of the codes so you should never be short of a betting option.

Promotions

Ladbrokes has sponsored a number of top darts tournaments in the past and at the time of writing, the operator is currently behind the World Series of Darts in a deal that was first signed in 2018.

For the 2017 renewal of this event, the bookmaker and headline sponsor issued an enhanced odds offer for new customers with 25/1 on the table for any 180 to be thrown in the final.

That was clearly a generous deal that landed for new account holders and while there is no guarantee moving forward, it may well come along again for the World Series and any other events that Ladbrokes are sponsoring.

Beyond those high priced deals, Ladbrokes will also issue regular darts price boosts for those that have already signed up as customers. These lifts will be much smaller than the new customer offer that we’ve just seen but the terms will be more flexible with no fixed stake and payment made in cash rather than free bet tokens.

Ladbrokes’ generic offers tend to focus on football plus greyhound racing and horse racing so the price boosts are the best way to go in order to find that extra value.

And, as we always say, the best darts bookmakers are the ones that combine value and choice to the best degree and that’s why we believe Ladbrokes are right up there as one of the best darts betting companies around.

Barely has the excitement died down from the PDC World Championship Final at Alexandra Palace than we’re into the BDO World Championships.

There is a new venue for the less-exalted BDO version of the world title this year. The Lakeside at Frimley Green has been abandoned in favour of the Indigo at the O2 but organisers have sold only 15 per cent of the ticket allocation so that arena is going to sound very empty.

The lack of interest has led to worries that prize money, even at this late stage, may be greatly reduced with sponsors describing an association with the BDO as ‘toxic’. The BDO is very much the poor relation of the PDC and you can’t help thinking that the decision to move their world champonships away from the intimate surrounding of Lakeside could be a fatal error. However, the tour is still a stepping stone for players hoping to make their way in the PDC with Glenn Durant, the winner at Lakeside in the last three years, making the quarter-finals at Ally Pally recently.

However, the dramatic decrease in prize money has already lost this year’s tournament one of its big names. Fallon Sherrock, the odds-on favourite for the Ladies World Championship after her amazing run in the PDC World Championship, has withdrawn with the Ladies winner claiming just £8,000 this year compared to the £12,000 which Mikuru Suzuki received 12 months ago, despite previous claims that the prize fund would increase in 2020. The Men’s Prize Fund will take a sharp drop to £150,000 from £329,000.

Martin ‘Wolfie’ Adams makes his return at the BDO World Darts Championship this year after surprisingly failing to qualify last year. But the three-times winner will face SCOTT WAITES in the first round.

Waites may be the 16th seed but he was the last player, before Durrant’s hat-trick, to win the BDO World Championship and was the losing finalist 12 months ago. The 42-year-old from Bradford looks well worth an interest at the general 10/1.

Current BDO number one Wesley Harms of the Netherlands will face either Andreas Harrysson or World Masters champion John O’Shea in the first round. Sparky was twice a losing semi-finalist at Lakeside and is also a best 10/1 with William Hill.

BDO World Trophy winner Jim Williams takes on Gary Stone in round one and is the current 7/2 favourite with most major online bookmakers. A semi-finalist last year, he’s bidding to become the fourth Welshman in history to win the BDO World Championship but is not yet in the same league as the likes of Leighton Rees and Richie Burnett.

Leighton Bennett is just 13 and will become the youngest player in BDO history to play in the Men’s World Championship when he faces Scott Mitchell. The teenager has already won the World Youth Championship this year and has been making waves across Europe since joining the senior tour. He’s only a best 20/1 to win the O2 tournament but is up against the 2015 winner in his first match – Mitchell is a general 12/1.

Richard Veenstra is a general 8/1 and the Dutchman was runner-up to Jim Williams in the BDO World Trophy earlier this year. However, he’s got a mixed record in the BDO World Championship and has twice gone out in the second round with thumping defeats.
