Puerto Rican Dominoes

A version of Dominoes

Partners to 200, with capicú and pass bonuses

Puerto Rican Dominoes — doscientos, the game of Puerto Rico's porches — is the Block game for two teams: seven tiles each, no boneyard, partners across. Going out scores every tile still in play, a capicú or a chuchazo adds 100, and making the next player pass earns 20, then 10. The winner of a hand leads the next, and the first team to 200 wins.
