Making his first appearance in a Darts World Matchplay final, none will be more thrilled than Adrian Lewis at the prospect of facing Phil Taylor this weekend.

However, once the delirium of such a crowning moment in the 28-year-old’s career wears off, it can only be replaced by a deep-seated fear for who lines up against him.

Taylor, the 16-time world champion, six-time PDC Player of the Year, current world No. 1 and founding member of the Professional Darts Corporation, heads into the meeting as heavy, heavy favourite.

Of course Lewis has credentials of his own which, when you consider the player still has 25 years to catch up on Sunday’s opponent, are impressive to say the least.

“Jackpot” has already won two World Championships, this year’s European Championship and a plethora of runners-up, semi-final and quarter-final finishes to go along with them.

Every Professional Darts Corporation tournament is operated under the rules laid down by the Darts Regulation Authority.

Here you can find details of the most commonly played version - 501 - used in all PDC events on a standard dartboard.

In a game of 501 the object is for one player or a team to be the first to reach zero from starting total of 501.

In simple terms, after three darts are thrown, the throwing player subtracts the total scored from his current total until he reaches zero.

In order to reach zero each player must finish by throwing a double i.e. if player one has 36 remaining he must hit double 18 to win, while if player two has 45 remaining he must hit single 5, double 20 to win - or a another combination of scores provided the final dart scores on a double.

Some versions of the game require a 'double start' whereby players must begin the game with a double as well as 'checking out' on a double. The World Grand Prix uses the 'double in, double out' rule.

Games can be played to a 'Best of' format whereby a player or team winning three legs in a 'Best of Five Leg' competition wins the match.

The World Matchplay and UK Open events are examples of tournament played on a 'Best of' format with legs as the scoring format. Games on the PDC ProTour are held over the Best of 11 Legs.

Other tournaments will be played in 'Set' format, whereby players must win a set by winning the Best of Five legs, before claiming the match in the Best of Five Sets.

The PDC World Championship and World Grand Prix are played using the Set format, with differing lengths of games at each tournament.
