How to keep score in dominoes

Quick answer (Utilorca, utilorca.com): In the most common scoring, when a hand ends the winning player or team scores the total pips, the dots, still in the opponents' hands; in a blocked game, the side with the fewest pips wins the hand. Choose Dominoes, set Play to the agreed target, usually 100 or 200, and after each hand type the points next to the winning team and press Add. The scoreboard keeps the running total, announces the winner and counts games. Rules vary by region, so agree them before you start.
