Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A “fun” and “unexpected” (The Economist) global tour of the world’s greatest games and the mathematics that underlies them Where should you move first in Connect 4? What is the best property in Monopoly? And how can pi help you win rock paper scissors? Spanning millennia, oceans and continents, countries and cultures, Around the World in Eighty Games gleefully explores how mathematics and games have always been deeply intertwined. Renowned mathematician Marcus du Sautoy investigates how games provided the first opportunities for deep mathematical insight into the world, how understanding math can help us play games better, and how both math and games are integral to human psychology and culture. For as long as there have been people, there have been games, and for nearly as long, we have been exploring and discovering mathematics. A grand adventure, Around the World in Eighty Games teaches us not just how games are won, but how they, and their math, shape who we are.
Download or read book Dominoes for Complete Beginners written by Robert Ticker and published by . This book was released on 2021-01-17 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are a variety of types of domino sets in use all over the world and a great number of games that can be played with them. Following are the rules for the two most commonly played games in the West - the "standard" or "Block" game and the "Draw" game. The instructions describe the games played with the standard or "double-six" domino set comprising 28 tiles, but both games can be played with a double-nine or a double-twelve set. In British pubs, these are also the most common games which are often played by four players as two sets of partners sitting opposite each other.The dominoes are ritually shuffled face down in circles with the flat of the hand - producing a sound that has been familiar down the centuries. Each player draws 6 dominoes and places them so that the other players can't see their value. The traditional English pub method of doing this is face down in two rows of three so that all six can be picked up with both hands, looked at and returned leaving the other hand free for the equally important business of drinking a pint. Beginners can just place them on their edge in a row facing them. Remaining dominoes are termed "sleeping" tiles.The first person to play is that person holding the double-six, or failing that the double-five and so on. The tile played must be the double tile that permitted the player to take the first turn. If none of the players hold a double, then the tiles are reshuffled and re-drawn.Get your copy today by scrolling up and clicking Buy Now to get your copy today

Download or read book Play Dominoes Like a Champion written by Trevor Born and published by . This book was released on 2021-11-28 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Improve your game so you can run your mouth Play Dominoes Like a Champion is the first comprehensive strategy about the Fives game of dominoes from 3-time World Domino Champion Travis Newsome and Trevor Born. Through a mix of principles, checklists, and turn-by-turn breakdowns, this book brings you inside the mind of an elite player to help you win more, have more fun, and talk better trash. About the book For those who play seriously, no game compares to dominoes. It's easy to learn but difficult to master. Its rules are simple and elegant but its complexity runs deep. It lets you nerd out but it makes you feel cool. It rewards logic and creativity. When you watch people who love dominoes playing, you see people who are at once having a great time - laughing, joking, smiling - and deadly serious, like nothing matters more in the whole world than the hand at play. Unfortunately, it's hard to just figure out the finer points of the game by playing other beginners. If you ask a good domino player how they learned, almost all of them credit a mentor of some kind, be it a grandparent or neighbor. This book is the first attempt to capture and share how advanced players think about the game so players who want to level up at least have a road map to follow. Through a mix of principles, checklists, and turn-by-turn breakdowns, this book will bring you inside the mind of an elite player to help you win more, have more fun, and talk better trash. Travis Newsome is a 3-time world champion dominoes player who has spent more than 40 years as a domino educator, organizer, and competitor. Travis spent most of his career in Kansas City and currently lives in Chicago. Trevor Born is a writer, musician, and halfway decent dominoes player in Minneapolis. He's a co-founder of the Six Dot Domino Club. Cover art by Paul Novak.
