About Competitive Dominoes: How To Play Like A Champion

From general principles to advanced skills, this fully illustrated winner's guide takes you through every aspect of the game: • Learn what constitutes a suit, scoring procedures, and how to add your domino to the "skeleton", or developing structure. • Special tips, including the Three Laws of Dominotics, greatly improve your chances of winning. • Develop the skills to analyze your hand and lead off - plus master Cover, Repeat and Square strategies. • Understand how your position affects your game plan, how to play doubles and when to jam a game. From the author's Preface to the Second Edition: This new edition expands upon the previous information in several ways. First, it adds a new section called "The First Tile" where I systematically walk you through the choices and decisions to be made when making your first play of the game. Second, I added a few more stories to my favorite chapter of the book: Chapter 16 "The Three Doors (and other stories)." I believe even highly experienced players will learn a trick or two from reading them! Third, I added a short section on the Mathematics of Dominoes. This is a subject that may not necessarily help you win games, but should tickle your brain and enlighten you about the complexities of Dominoes. Finally, strictly for your amusement, there's a section on solitaires, riddles, and games using the domino tiles.
