Bernie Smith prize money
Bernie Smith has been paid £12,250 by the 268 darts events on this site, which ranks 304th of the 793 players they paid. The biggest of it was £11,000 at the 2018 PDC World Championship, where Bernie Smith lost in the round of 64.
Every figure here is a single payment. A darts tournament pays for where the run ended and not for each round on the way to it, so the £11,000 at the 2018 PDC World Championship is one payment with nothing behind it. That is the opposite of a football run, where a club collects again at every round it reaches.
Every payment
Where each run ended, and what the band paid for it
| EVENT | FINISH | PAID |
|---|---|---|
| New Zealand Darts Masters 2022 | Last 16 | £1,250 |
| PDC World Championship 2018 | Last 64 | £11,000 |
| All two | — | £12,250 |
The two figures add up because none of them contains another: a band is paid once, so £12,250 is two separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.01% of the £91,450,000 the 268 events paid out between them. The site holds 53 tournaments and Bernie Smith has been paid at two of them. The biggest of the 51 that have not paid him are World Matchplay, Grand Slam of Darts and Players Championship Finals.

season running total
2018 is the biggest year of it, £11,000 from one event. We hold no event that paid Bernie Smith in 2019, 2020 and 2021, so those columns stand at nothing. The dimmer column behind each year is the running total, which reaches £12,250.
