Mix the dominoes and then put all of them to one side of the table.
Each player draws dominoes from the pile and turns them over.
Player one will take the first domino and flip it over on the table.
Count the dots and write that number on the scratch paper.
Then flip another domino and add those dots to the first number.
Keep flipping dominos and adding numbers until you get as close as you can to 40.
If you go over 40, you automatically lose that round.
Once player one has gotten as close to 40 as possible, then it is Player Two’s turn.
The player that is the closest to 40 without going over is the winner.
