3.0 out of 5 stars for beginners..., November 8, 2008
This review is from: The Dominologist: Learn To Become The Best At Dominoes (Paperback)
it gives basic strats already known in serious domino circles, so its good for new players not for seasoned vets looking for that edge. written quite well though, it seems the author really put his personality in it, it was like i was actually talking to the author as i read the book, i read it every chance i got. the title should be: dominoe basics for beginners.

1.0 out of 5 stars Snappy banter but little strategy, August 4, 2008
This review is from: The Dominologist: Learn To Become The Best At Dominoes (Paperback)
This book will do little more than take a beginning player to a novice. It spends quite a bit of space just listing the posible scoring combinations when playing. There are a few references to strategies to employ but no examples to illustrate their practical application. I am sure the author is an excellent player but he is a poor writer who fails to explan his thought processes and depth of understanding of this game.

This review is from: The Dominologist: Learn To Become The Best At Dominoes (Paperback)
This book is written in a breezy style which may be fun for some people, but has little detail or examples or even high level strategy. The style results in things like count the board. Great what do I with this count? Or the books says be careful. What does be careful mean? Also the book is disorganized. It talks about combinations in one chapter, but does not explain what a combination is until two chapters later. I would say skip this, but I don't know of any other domino books. I wanted to catch up with my friends who have been playing for years, but this book will not do it.
