	42 (dominoes) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		As there are 42 points in the game (one point for each of the 7 tricks, plus 35 points from the 6-4, 5-5, 3-2, 4-1, and 5-0 dominoes), the maximum bid would be 42--with one exception.
		Each domino is considered to belong to the suit of its higher end, unless that domino contains the number of the trump suit, in which case it is considered a member of the trump suit.
		Dominoes are played trick atop trick to avoid revealing what has been played thusfar in the hand.

	Dominoes - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Dominoes (or "dominos") generally refers to the individual or collective gaming pieces making up a domino set (sometimes called a deck or pack) or to the games played with these pieces.
		Dominoes have been made of bone, ivory, plastic, metal and wood, and occasionally are made of cardstock like that for playing cards.
		Dominoes were apparently unknown in Europe until the 18th century and may have been invented in their modern form in Italy.

		When all 4 players have played a domino, the winner of that trick is the player who played the highest domino in the suit that was led, or the highest trump (remember, the trump suit is always the highest suit).
		This is because most 84 hands will have an "off" domino in them which the player hopes will end up being the highest domino in the trick by the end of the hand (or else the player hopes that his or her partner will win that last trick).
		Dominoes that have a high value on both sides are the best to keep until the end of the hand, such as the 6-5, 6-4, 5-4, etc., because they have the potential to end up being the highest remaining domino in 2 different suits.

	BBC - h2g2 - How to Win Texas 42, part 1
		Texas 42 is a challenging game - one which combines the psychology of a bidding game and the statistical strategy of those games that mathematicians and economists love so much.
		If one has this domino and no adequate way to protect it from being pulled out by the 6/6 or 4/4 (other 6's or 4's which could be thrown in its place) then passing may be wise.
		The domino gets its nickname from the fact that it is particularly susceptible to breaking: An overwhelming percentage of domino sets have a chipped or cracked 3/1.
