Starting a Game
Every domino game takes place at a table and you can start in two different ways:
1. Opening a new table with your own specific features of stake, points, move timer and privacy.
2. Joining someone else’s table.

Points: When any player reaches the amount of points that have been specified, the game ends.
Game: It determines the domino set you want to play with, double six or double nine.
Bones: Is the total of bones each player can use starting each round, if the "Draw 9 bones" is not selected, by default the game will give 7 bones to each player.
Move Timer: This refers to the turn time for each player. If the player doesn’t make a move within this time, he will be declared defeated.
Amount: This is the stake each player needs to bet in order to participate in a game.
Rotate the Down: During a regular game the player that starts each round is the one that won the last one or had less points in his bones (in case the game was blocked). If the "Rotate the Down" option is selected, the order of turns at the beginning of each round is determined clockwise giving each player the opportunity to start a round while the game takes place.
Privacy: It is possible to see other players' tables and other players can watch your games unless you mark the “Private Game” option.

Points Game Mode
The DominoesStars Points Mode is a new and sophisticated spin in the traditional way to make stakes in games of two players. Giving each point a value or price, you have the opportunity to increase your final winnings, as you can get an additional prize plus the regular "Table Prize".In the Points Game Mode you get paid for all the points you take in advantage, which means that if you win a 100 points game when the other player had 60 points, you get an additional prize for the 40 points of difference.
To open a table with the Points Game Mode, follow the steps below.
1. Click on "Open Table" and establish a value from $0 to $1 in the in the section of "Point Price".
2. If you want to join someone else's table, take a look on the point price that appears in the "Stake" column.
Note: The system will always calculate the maximum loss when you open a table or join someone else's table in the Points Game Mode in order to guarantee that both players have enough money to cover it.
The worst case of loss is the limit of points in the game, which means that in a table opened to 100 points the maximum difference is 0-100 where one of the players wins the game with a score of 100 and the other player didn't manage to score.
In the example below you find a situation where one player is winning a game with 84 points and the other is losing it with 35 with a Point Price of $1, which means that the Points Gap is 49 and the Points Value is $49.
Note: The Points Gap and the Points Value appear as negative numbers for the player that is loosing the game.
4. When the game ends the winner gets the total computation of the Table Prize plus the Points Value.
In the example below the player has got $20 from the Table Prize plus $43 from the Points Value for a total of $63.
Note: If the player that wins the game makes more points, for example 101 in a 100 points game the Points Gap is always calculated to 100, or the game points (100, 150, 250, 350, 500 according to what was established at the beginning).
5. Whenever you find the other player is winning with a large advantage in his points you can click on the button "Start New Game" to give up and start another game (just if your opponent agrees).
Note: If you decide to start a new game you will lose the stake and the current Points Value.
