During the first three rolls of the game, doublets only played twice. For example, a roll of 3-3 means one that four threes are available to be used. This changes after the first three rolls. Now the player not only plays the number rolled four times, but also plays each successive number four times. For example, if a player rolls 2-2, he or she may play four 2's, then four 3's, four 4's, four 5's and finally four 6’s. If at any point the player is unable to play all four numbers, the rest are lost and the opponent plays the remainder before starting his or her next turn. It is not difficult to play consecutive doubles when the game is still in its early stages. But because, in Gul bara, it only needs one man to block a point, players block more and more points and as the game progresses playing all the doubles is often quite difficult.
