But, after one or both ends of the doublet have been brought into the game, suddenly there are three or four numbers to add up as possible points ... and bigger scores to be made, like this:

WOW! A whopping 20 points.

Any other doublets are played perpendicularly, as was the first, and have both ends counted for score until their centers have been played upon ... but these latecomers don't open up new lines of play. That could get too blamed confusing!

When one contestant empties his hand, or when the bone pile has been used and neither hand can play, the game is over.

Whichever player has the fewest total pips in front of him at the end of a match is awarded the difference between that number and the number of dots held by his opponent ... rounded off to the nearest five.

That's all there is to muggins. Give it a try, but remember ... pocket computers are frowned upon by real domino folks!
