Tennis, darts & cue sports

Tennis is decided point by point, so its prices move during a match more than most, and that movement is the theme of this section. Darts, snooker and golf share the same one-against-one structure.

Match winner, set betting and games handicaps are the tennis staples; darts and snooker offer frames, legs and totals in similar form. Golf, table tennis, badminton and padel are further in, and chess and curling are rarities. Golf adds each-way terms, which differ by event and operator and are read from the market.

Britain has no statutory list of permitted markets. Licensed operators choose their own rules within a category, and the same match can therefore be offered in different shapes.
