The rules of the dart competition are slightly complex and not simply about comparing who scores higher. If that were the case, everyone would only need to practice hitting the highest-scoring area—why bother dividing the target into over sixty areas? Moreover, each zone has its designated points.

General competitions set the scores at 301, 501, etc. More commonly, it's 501, like the two competitions Chen Xu had participated in, including this one.

Before the competition, each player starts with 501 points. They deduct points, say 20, by hitting a 20-point zone, and whoever gets their score down to zero first wins.

Typically, each player throws ten rounds of darts, three darts per round. If, after ten rounds, nobody has reduced their score to zero, the player with the least points wins.

There are also certain rules, such as when your score is left at 50 but you hit a 60-point zone, which is called a "bust" and you have to start over.
