Set the table.

Four players form two teams. Sit opposite your partner. Shuffle a double-6 set face down and deal 7 bones to each player.

Start the hand.

The holder of the highest double opens with that double. Play continues counter-clockwise.

Match. Play. Pass.

On your turn, play one bone that matches an open end. Doubles sit crosswise and don’t create extra ends in these presets. If you have no matching bone, pass; the unused stock is out of play.

When the table locks.

If everyone passes, add the pips held by each pair of partners. The team with the lower total wins. An equal total scores no winner.

Count the win.

The winning team receives all pips left in everyone’s hands, including their own. The first team to 200 points wins.
