Bao toto in other hand is the straight version as it has minimal restrictions. Therefore there is no house rule. Also reverse (edge) holes have no special functionalities. You win bao toto if front row of your opponent has no hole with 2 or more seeds. In this case, the front row is said to be unstable or unhealthy.
Example, you lose if your front row looks like this:
(1) (0) (1) (1) (1) (0) (0) (0)
To start sowing, you only allowed to take all seeds from hole with two or more seeds (no matter from front row or back row, you can choose whatever) then you sow starting from any adjacent hole to establish sowing direction.
When you land in hole with seed(s) you can capture seeds from opponent facing hole if it has seed(s) and then you continue sowing the next hole by preserving the current direction. If you land in empty hole, then your turn is over.
