Hi my name is Windy St. George and this is how to play a game of Dominoes. We are going
to be playing with double sixes, use double nines and twelves but that's for more players
then two or three. Double nines are a specialty game called chicken foot and double twelve
is a specialty game called Mexican train, it's very popular. But this is basic dominoes.
You start by washing the tiles, just smoothly running them together, then everyone draws
a tile until all the tiles have been distributed. The person with, then everyone looks at their
tiles and the person, but keep them secret from everyone else. The person with the highest
doubles puts it in the middle. And the next person gets to play, they have to follow suit
so they have to be able to match the five on the dominoes. Then all the exposed ends
are counted, so here the exposed end would be the five, and the six. So that's eleven.
If the exposed ends are counted up and if they are divisible by three then you get a
point. But you don't get a point if they are not divisible by three. It's simple right
now, but as the game gets larger and larger it branches off, it gets harder to keep track
of how the ends are counting up. And certain combinations are profitable and as you play
the game you'll learn to memorize and recognize them right away. Profitable combinations and
that's how you play a game of dominoes.
