I was invited to play Mexican Dominoes with a group at my clubhouse. Although I was assured that the players would teach me, I read Mr Madsten's book to, at least, learn the basics. I highly recommend this book as it is written in a simple but thorough style. This game requires a minimum of 2 players and a maximum of 4. Place the pieces face down on the table and mix them together with your hands to make sure they are properly mixed. Allow your opponent to get seven pieces of dominoes, and get seven for yourself. Leave the rest at one side of the table.
Number of Players: 2-4
Type of Dominoes Used: Double 6

One of the most popular of all domino games. Educational and easy to learn for children. Straight Dominoes is the game usually played at old-fashioned domino halls in small towns throughout Texas and other southern states.
Players: Two, three or four may play the game of Dominoes. If four are playing the game, it may be played as a partnership (the two players sitting opposite one another are partners).
Players: Two, three or four may play the game of Dominoes. If four are playing the game, it may be. Points may be awarded during the play of the hand by making the exposed ends of the chain total to a multiple of five (in Five-Up Domino). The winner at the end of each hand also scores points for all the pips remaining in the other player's hand. Players can also select between 7-bone hand and 9-bone hand. The basic form of Domino found online is a single player block Domino where you compete against the casino in a set number of rounds. Per the rules, the game begins with both players being given 7 to 9 tiles for the round. Some variation also determine the first player by who has the highest pair (two 3s, 6s, etc).

The Shuffle: To begin the dominoes are placed face down and 'shuffled.' Players draw one domino. The player drawing the highest double or if no double, the highest domino plays first. Re-shuffle and then begin drawing the first hand.
Drawing: Each player then draws seven dominoes for his hand. The remaining dominoes (the boneyard), if any, are left face down on the table to be drawn later if a player is unable to play from his hand.

Begin Play: The player who drew the highest double or the highest domino plays first, playing any domino he wishes from his had.
Object of the game: Scoring points by laying the dominoes end to end (the touching ends must match: i.e., one's touch one's, two's touch two's, etc.). If the dots on the exposed ends total any multiple of five the player is awarded that number of points. All sides of the first double (the spinner) may be used one piece to each side and later one to each end. All other doubles are played at right angles to the line and the total points on both ends are counted. Dominoing occurs when one player goes out by playing all of his dominoes. The sum of the spots of all opposing players is computed and added to the dominoing player's score (rounded to the nearest five). In partnership play the spots of the partner of the one who 'DOMINOED' are not counted.

Blocking the Game: If in the course of the game it is impossible for any of the players to play, the game is 'Blocked.' The player (or partners) having the least spots in his (or their combined) hand(s) scores the total of the spots in the opponents' hands (rounded to the nearest five). The score of 250 points is usually considered a game. The first person (or partnership) to score this amount wins the game. Shuffle and begin a new game. The player who won plays first.
