The hand is won when an individual finishes the tiles in his hand. The next tile played on each of the arms must be the appropriate double, and as soon as the double is in place the arm can be continued using normal matching rules (it is not necessary to wait for all four doubles to be played. Four tiles with a blank must be played against the four sides of the before any other tiles can be played.

Each player keeps a score of games won and the first player to achieve 6 wins is the overall winner, provided that another player has zero. The play is the same as in the partner game. 3 players get 9 tiles each (double blank is taken out).2 players get 14 tiles each (It may be stipulated before the start of the game that 7 tiles are used and the rest stay in the boneyard to be drawn when needed).When playing "cut throat" the size of the hand varies with the number of players: That is to say, if the score was 0 - 0 or the leading team wins, the winners add the appropriate number of points (one for the current deal and one for each tied deal that preceded it), but if the leading team loses the score is simply reset to 0 - 0. If the first replay is also a tie, there will be a second replay for 3 points, and if that is also a tie, the third replay is for 4 points, and so on. If the leading team loses the replay, the score is reset to 0 - 0. If one team already has a score, that team starts, and if they win the replay they add two points.

It does not matter what tiles the winner's partner has. If the game is blocked, the hand is won by the team of the player whose remaining tiles have the least spots.If a player manages to play all his tiles, that player's team wins the hand.The hand ends when an individual first finishes playing all tiles from his hand, or when the game becomes blocked, so that no one is able to play a tile.

If a player cannot play then he passes his turn. Doubles are traditionally played at right angles across the line. As usual, a turn consists of playing one tile to extend one of the two ends of the layout, and the touching ends of adjacent dominoes must match. Having seen their tiles the players of this team may discuss which of them will start (but are not allowed to tell each other what tiles they hold), and the player who starts may begin with any tile.
