Matching Games

mw_dobson

I need advice on "setting up" matching games. I seem to have the most difficulty with number restrictions and being able to swiftly move through these games. Does a "catch all" approach exist when dealing with these types of setups, at least, in order to get started? I feel as if these are preventing me from breaking into the 150s. I'm at a 148 right now and it's driving me mad.

I'm actually not sure what you're referring to here. Do you mean grouping games (you have pieces and need to sort them into groups)?

If so, I'd suggest trying to always stay highly organized. Make a list early on of your pieces and, critically, identify if they match the groups perfectly. Do you have more pieces than groups (forcing some to double up)? Or are there more groups than pieces (leaving some groups empty)?
