Rules of curling competition

At the beginning of the curling competition, each side throws a pot, and whoever has the pot closest to the target has the right to choose the first hand. Of course, you are not allowed to choose the first hand, because under normal circumstances, the second hand is worth 2 points.

After the game starts, the player who scores in each game becomes the first player in the next game. If neither side scores, the order of the next game is the same as that of the previous game. So if the ninth inning is the back hand and no one scores in this inning, then the back hand is the back hand of 10.

If a team scores, the one who doesn't score is the back hand of the tenth inning. So, sometimes, the ninth inning is the back team. If he can't get a high score (more than 2 points) in the ninth game, he will choose to knock out all the pots, so that neither side can get points, and he will still retain the advantage of the back hand in the tenth game.
