[ she toes the oche with the edge of her shoe and rolls one dart between her fingers. she's played on this board before and knows the weight of these three. but peggy's not convinced she wants to full-press straight out the gate. it's less about the wager and more about learning the opponent.
and so her first throw (as he'd invited her to start, rather than vie for the first shot) is an easy lob. an inner 10, an inner 3, an inner 14. peggy chalks her score in on her side and subtracts her 27 from the starting 301. they weren't bad throws, but they weren't great.
