Description: DESIGN IS RANDOMLY SELECTED. IF YOU WANT A SPECIFIC DESIGN, CONTACT US FIRST TO ENSURE AVAILABILITY Basic Game Domino Set: The standard double 6 set with 28 bones. Players: Two or three play each by themselves. Four, two against two as partners, facing each other. The Deal: All bones are shuffled face down and each player draws 7 bones. In 2 or 3 player games the remaining bones are stocked together on the side and form the bone yard. Each player keeps his dominoes secret to himself only. The Game: In the first game of a match, the player who holds the double 6 starts the game. In 2 or 3 player games if the double 6 wasn’t drawn, then the highest double starts the game. In subsequent games in the same match, the winner player of the previous game starts the game with any bone he wants, a double or otherwise. Once the first domino is played, the next player to the opener’s RIGHT plays a bone to the layout, draws or passes, and the game continues counter-clockwise. In Puerto Rico, due to our Spanish origins, most games are played to the right (counter-clockwise), instead of to the left as in most other games. If a player can’t legally play a bone, (in 2 or 3 player games) he must draw from the bone yard until he can play. If the bone yard is exhausted, (or in 4 player games) he must pass. If a player has a bone on hand that can be played legally, he can’t draw from the bone yard, and must play from his/her hand. Drawing from the bone yard in the hope of finding a more strategically sound play is illegal and considered “Trampa!” When a player passes, it is customary to knock one of his bones on the table as a signal that he is passing. Alternately he can signal the pass by saying the word “Paso” (Pass). The End: The game ends when one player goes plays his last bone or the game is blocked (all players have consecutively passed). The player whose dominoes, or in the case of a blocked game (“trancado”) the player/team with the lightest hand, wins the hand. He (or his team in 4 player games) scores points equal to the number of spots on the bones left in the hands of all the players (including his partner, and his own in a blocked game). Object of the game: A Domino Match is made of several individual games, and the first player/team to score the agreed in advance score wins the match. Typical match scores are 100 or 200 points (“Doscientos“). Some Puerto Rican Domino Terms: “Mano” – A single game. A dominoes match is made of several games (manos). “Chuchazo” – When the winning bone is the double-blank (“la Chucha!”) . “Capicú” – When the winning bone can play on either open end of the layout. Doesn’t apply when the winning bone is a double. “Trancado” – A blocked game. The last bone played before the game got blocked is called the “Tranque“. “Ahorcado” – A hanged double. A double that can no longer be played because all the other 6 dominoes in that suit have been played. “Puerta” – It’s the last bone remaining for a particular number. i.e. When on one end of the layout you can only play a 3, and there is only one 3 left, the player holding that 3 is said to have “la Puerta del 3“
