- Keith Deller's 138 to clinch the 1983 BDO World Darts Championship trophy against Eric Bristow is amongst the most memorable in darting history. Bristow had left himself 50 to stay in the match, but decided to throw for single 18 to leave double 16 instead of a more difficult attempt at the bullseye. Deller then hit treble 20, treble 18, double 12. To this day commentators often refer to 138 as the "Deller checkout".
