The player with the highest double (double 6 therefore) begins the domino game. If no one owns this domino, it will be the player with the strongest double. The next player in turn must place a domino having the same number of points on at least one side of the previously placed domino.
Each player receives 7 dominoes or 6 dominoes depending on the number of participants in the game (7 2 player dominoes, 6 3 or 4 player dominoes). Beware! The dominoes must be distributed with the points hidden. The rest of the dominoes serve as a pickaxe.
