My friend Johnny has a big issue in the game of Monopoly.

He got one double and bought a property. He then got another double and landed on Go To Jail. He then got double fives.

Does he get out of jail or does he stay in jail?

According to the rules, a players turn ends when sent to Jail:
"When you are sent to Jail you cannot collect your $200 salary in that move since, regardless of where your token is on the board, you must move it directly into Jail. Yours turn ends when you are sent to Jail."

So, your friend's turn ends, and should not have had the opportunity to throw his double fives.

Sorry Johnny, you're in Jail until at least your next turn.

It all depends on when he rolled the double 5's. It was no longer his turn after he landed on "Go to Jail", but if his next turn he rolled doubles he is out of jail. Our house rules is that once you roll the doubles to get out of jail you move to the outside (Just Visiting) and on your next turn you move. I believe that the box says you can move the amount of the doubles, so if you have a prize for free parking, then your friend Johnny had landed there.

Best of luck. hope you win.

He gets out of jail. You have the option of trying to roll for doubles or paying the fee to get out of jail.

His turn is over. He doesn't get out of jail.

The economic company does not run out of money. you paintings it out with paper or however you want. We basically wrote on products of paper before each and everything, and ultimately we offered an better set of monopoly money.

Hahaha awesome. I'm gonna agree with the above and say that Jimmy gets to bust out. I hope he didn't collect the $200.
