The World Darts Championship 2022 is almost here, and Paddy Power are getting in on the action! Place a £5.00+ win or £2.50+ each way bet on the tournament winner, and we’ll get a £2.00 free bet for every 180 they have in their first match. Translated into matched betting terms, this gives us a potential profit of £7.73 and here’s how…
Key terms

Qualifying bet
Please see my qualifying bets guide if you’d like more information about them and how they work.
It’s entirely up to you which player you go for. At the time of writing, Gerwyn Price is available at back odds of 5.00 (4/1) and lay odds of 5.20.
We can calculate our lay stake using my Matched Betting Calculator…
As you can see, the calculator tells us that our lay stake should be £4.83…
Place £5.00 on Gerwyn Price @ 5.00 = Potential profit of £20.00
Lay £4.83 on Gerwyn Price @ 5.20 = Potential liability of £20.28
Outcomes
Let’s have a look at our potential profit/loss for the possible outcomes…
| Outcome | Paddy Power | Exchange | Profit/Loss |
|---|---|---|---|
| Gerwyn Price wins | + £20.00 | – £20.28 | £0.28 loss |
| Another player wins | – £5.00 | + £4.73 | £0.27 loss |
So, no matter the outcome, we’ll lose a maximum of £0.28 in qualifying for our potential free bets.
Free bets
We’ll receive a £2.00 free bet for every 180 our selected player has in their first match of the tournament. Free bets will usually be credited within 1 hour of the match finishing and valid for 7 days. Free bet stakes are not included in any returns.
If Gerwyn Price has five 180s in his first match, we’ll receive £10.00 in free bets.
Using straightforward matched betting, we should convert our free bets into 80% cash, so £8.00. Considering our minimum qualifying loss of £0.27 gives us a potential profit of £7.73 on this Paddy Power offer!
* Gerwyn Price threw three 180s in his opening match and Peter Wright won the tournament, resulting in £4.53 profit on this Paddy Power offer. *
