Rules:

Deck contains 28 unique domino ranks ranging from 0-0 to 6-6. Two of each rank exist for a total of 56 cards in the deck.


The deck is shuffled after each hand.

The player WINS if one or more of the cards in the HAND match with the CONNECTOR to create a point total only of 5, 10, or 15 points. If only ONE card in the HAND matches the CONNECTOR to form a point total of 5, 10, or 15 points, that is the final value of the hand. If TWO or ALL THREE of the cards in the player’s HAND match the CONNECTOR card to form a point total of 5, 10, or 15 points, ADD the value of the matching cards to create the final point total of 10,15,20,25,30,35, or 40 points.

3-2 CONNECTOR RULE: The 3-2 domino card does not score with any other card in the deck. If the player’s CONNECTOR card is a 3-2, the player’s CASINO DOMINOES wager is automatically paid 2:1. This rule does NOT apply to any 3-2 dealt in the player’s 3-card HAND. 

If the player has two or more DOUBLES cards out of the four cards dealt, they are paid according to the DOUBLES paytable. There are two BONUS hands a player can be dealt: 

-DOUBLE DOUBLES is a special hand where the player is dealt ANY two pairs of MATCHING DOUBLES. For example, if a player’s HAND is 2-2, 5-5, 2-2, and the player’s CONNECTOR is a 5-5, they have made two pairs of double cards and qualify for the DOUBLE DOUBLES payout. 

-MAIDEN’S HAND. The player is awarded the MAIDEN’S HAND payout when the he is dealt the four biggest doubles in any order: 6-6, 5-5, 4-4, and 3-3.
