Mexican Train - Setup

Setup

At the start of each round, the dominoes are placed face side down, shuffled, and drawn by players to form their hands. Using the standard double-twelve set, players draw dominoes as follows:

  • 2-4 players: 14 dominoes each
  • 5-6 players: 12 dominoes each
  • 7-8 players: 10 dominoes each

Any remaining dominoes are placed to one side, forming the "boneyard".
