      hemen112 not just that. At the endgame phase of the game, it is wiser to stay in jail as long as possible, rather than paying your way out immediately. That’s because most likely houses and hotels were already on the board, and by staying in jail will reduce your chance of landing on those tiles for a few turn, while you can still collect some money from your investments.

    Without watching this, you can play in 2 hours by following the actual rules, and not the rules everyone thinks apply. Any property not purchased goes up for auction immediately. You don't have to land on a property to be able to buy it like most people play.

    Favorite part of the game for me is the deals mid game. I literally mortgage properties to pull my money out then make deals for the prices I want. Sometimes I could hold properties from people I don't like if they mouth off but most of the time, I help people mid to late game if they were cool. Auctions are also fun too. Especially when you raise someone out of the bid or raise/bait someone into bidding more than what the original price is to make them spend more. Surprisingly, Monopoly when played with intellectuals is some of the sweatiest Gaming I've ever played.

    Very informative video. Thank you very much. I believe there was an error as regards mortgaged property changing hands. The official rule book says "Whenever a mortgaged property changes hands between players, either through a trade, sale or by bankruptcy, the new owner must immediately pay 10% interest on the mortgage and at their option may pay the principal or hold the property. If the player holds the property and later wishes to lift the mortgage they must pay the 10% interest again as well."
    But I liked your video. It helped me clarify some of the rules.

      The Speed Die was introduced in 2006 (which is why I don't have one), but I looked it up for you!
      The Speed Die is not used in determining doubles; it is used in determining triples. If triple 1s, 2s, or 3s are rolled, the player may move forward to any space on the board, and the player does not roll again.
      If a player rolls two doubles and then a triple, they do not go to jail, but after they move to whichever spot on the board they wish, and the player does not roll again.
      The Speed Die is not used when trying to roll your way out of jail.
      If you roll:
      - 1, 2, or 3: Add the rolled number to the normal dice total.
      - Mr. Monopoly: Move according to the normal dice, and take that turn as normal. Before rolling again or passing the dice to the next player, move to the next unowned property, which they may buy or auction. If there are no unowned properties, the player moves to the nearest unmortgaged property owned by an opponent. In the event that all opponents' properties are mortgaged, do nothing.
      - Bus: You can choose to move the value of both of the white dice, or just the value of one white die. For example, if a player rolls a 2 and a 6 and a Bus, then that player can choose to move 2, 6, or 8 spaces.

    If you can buy houses anytime during the game do you then have to race the person who's turn it is by paying for the houses and putting them up before they roll the dice? What if the transaction with the bank is happening as the person is rolling the dice? I could see some arguments as to whether they have to pay house prices if the house wasn't physically on the board yet despite you having paid for it already.

You can offer any amount of cash that your player is willing to accept. Just remember that you still need your own cash to build houses once you own a completed color set.

      Yes. The part where they tell you to roll the dice and hopefully get doubles to get out. If you don't want to get out, then you have to be lucky, and have at least $50.

    • @kingrex1931
      @kingrex1931 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      You don't have to unmortgage immediately, but you do have to pay the 10% when you take ownership. If you unmortgage when you take ownership, you only pay the 10% once, if you wait until later to unmortgage you have to pay the 10% again.

Kids don't understand some of these things. Yeah, we would make up our own rules. And even cheat.

  • @richardryley3660
    @richardryley3660 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    As others have said (and I know, this is an old video) the #1 way to speed up Monopoly is to auction off any property a player doesn't buy. Every time a player lands on a new property it should end up in someone's hand. I learned that from Monopoly Playmaster. :)
    I would go so far as to say that
    if no one is willing to bid on it, have everyone roll the dice and sell it to the highest roller for $10. If he doesn't have $10, give it to him for free. Some cutthroat players may even let a property go up for auction in hopes of getting it for less than the asking price.

  • @SurSpir
    @SurSpir 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hi. We had a heated debate today. How are hotels mortgaged? Does the price of the 4 houses have to be taken into consideration, or is it just 50% of the hotel? We checked the rule book but it doesn't address this issue clearly!

    • @BetterDoneYourself
      @BetterDoneYourself 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hotels are not mortgaged but sold back to the back at 50% of their purchase price, which was the cost of 5 houses.

  • @Qermaq
    @Qermaq 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    One utility actually earns a bit more money than one railroad. And both utilities is a bit better long-term than two railroads. But I generally agree, don’t buy utilities unless you are desperate and there’s a player you can sucker in a trade with it. Railroads trade well and yield more returns if you wind up with 4 but I never enter a game thinking “Im’a get railroads”.

    You should still buy the utilities you can use them to sweeten a deal later, buy them like anything else.
    You do not have to immediately unmortgage properties when buying them, but you do have to pay the 10% interest on them immediately. If you don't unmortgage the properties when taking ownership, you have to pay the 10% again when you do unmortgage them later.

  • @awolf913
    @awolf913 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Slight correction, when you have a mortgaged property that you trade with an opponent, the opponent in question does not necessarily have to unmortgage the property straight away. Instead the opponent can just pay 10% interest on the property and leave it mortgaged until a potential later time. If he/she leaves it mortgaged, they have no choice but to pay this 10% interest to the bank, it has to be paid. On the other hand, if the opponent chooses to unmortage at a turn later than straight after receiving the mortgaged property, then he/she must pay the mortgage cost plus 10%.

    • @JohnPelagides
      @JohnPelagides 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      And that 10% mortgage fee is calculated from the mortgage amount. Example. You receive a mortgaged train station from another player. You choose not to pay the mortgage. But you instead pay the 10% only. In this case the mortgage fee amount is $100 x 10% equals $10 mortgage fee. Pay $10 to the bank and receive the mortgaged train station.
      Later you want to unmortgage the train station. Pay the $100 mortgage plus the 10% mortgage interest. Total paid is $100 plus 10% equals $110. Paid to the bank.

    • @awolf913

      John Pelagides thank you. Also what happens if you are electrd chairman of the board to pay each player $50? But, what if you don't have enough money to pay each player? Does the money go to the bank? Or do you have to split your money as evenly as possible then go out the game?

  • @mehulpandya6919

    @Chitchatjf2 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    TWO things you got wrong:
    1)When selling a mortgaged property the new owner does not have to lift it They can just pay the 10% interest and then life it later but would have to pay the 10% AGAIN in doing so
    2)When a player goes bankrupt to you YOU get all their properties NOT the bank

    • @alexxxx509

      @@AnathexAdventurer see there's an argument as to why you cant sell your hotel + 4 houses if no houses are available. the reason is that houses are sold one at a time and therefore going from hotel to the next level down requires 4 houses. obviously when people play the game and going from hotel to no houses, they don't go through the physical motions of placing the houses down each time. But this is the same reason why you cannot upgrade to a hotel unless you can physically have 4 houses on each property
