First take 1 bead and put it in the hole farthest from your goal. Put 2 next to that. Then 3, 4, 5, and 6. Repeat that on the other side. The first person takes the beads in 1 hole (but never take beads from a goal) and places them 1 by 1 in a line until there are no more beads in your hand. Then its the next persons turn unless your last bead lands in your goal. In that case go again. Keep going back and forth until there are no more beads to move. Then count the beads in your goal. The person with the most beads wins.
A second way to play is to put 4 beads in each hole and play with the same rules.
