      MegaDale42 I can. We used to have round-robin tournaments in my hometown. As soon as you were out of the 4 player game, you’d be put into a new game that was starting. If you’re just playing the game at home, it’s usually a team game. The people across from each other are teamed together.

    As a Canadian, this brings back so many memories of sitting around the Crokinole board with my parents and sisters. Ours had a Checkers/Chess board on the underside of the board and the Crokinole pieces doubled as checkers pieces. Our boards were not even close to the quality of the one in this video, but it didn't matter to us. Thanks for sharing with us.

  • @barnardalbert
    @barnardalbert Před rokem

    Sorry if someone mentioned already but the pucks you are using have two sides. One side is flat the other is convex (think like a top) so play with the convex or “pointy,” side down and your pucks will move much faster. A quick way to tell which side is which is just spin the puck on the board before shooting it. If you have the puck right side up it will spin like a top.
    Additionally, some comments were directed at your scoring. There are two basic ways to score a game. One is the one you use (each game gives 2 points to winner of a game..zero points to loser and one point each for a tie). The other way is to add up your score totals and the winner will get the difference i.e. player one winds up with 45 points and player two 35 points then player one gets 10 points for that game. Often games that are scored this way the winner is the first to reach 100 but that’s flexible. You can certainly play just to 50, or increase to 150 or whatever you choose.
    Your scoring system (2points to winner, 0 points to loser and one point each for a tie game) is the one I use and is used in pretty much any tournament play, especially in the US and Canada although I suspect that is pretty much the standard all over the world.
    Please see the youtube channels, “Tracey Boards,” or “CrokinoleCenter,” for additional Crokinole and North American tournament game play.

    Here in Canada we play on much cheaper boards without the gloss-powder. Usually the pucks are just dark and light coloured wood. You have to flick it a little harder and they don't spin around as much afterwards, but otherwise it's the same game. I'd actually love to try out one of these glossy boards and see how it feels to hit it so much softer.
    Oh, and often we'll play games with like 20 stones per person.. so it's a much longer game with sometimes much higher scores at the end.

    I have a question. After the game has already started and you get a chance to shoot for a 20, do the same rules apply, you must atleast make it in the 15 point section?

    • @joelface
      @joelface Před 3 lety

      We never played that way growing up, but I believe in the rules it states that if your opponent doesn't have a puck on the board then you must have it land within the 15-point area. I presume this is to prevent the strategy we began employing where we set a "trap" piece on our own side of the board and then shoot for 20s while our opponent tries desperately to knock off the trap one.

  • @JudeforLess
    @JudeforLess Před 4 lety

    20:50 this shot would count, no? If a piece jumps back up on the board, all collisions stand? The piece that went out would have to be removed, but the other two could stay, I think... Please let me know if I'm wrong, still learning the game
