How To Play Backgammon: Learn Essential Strategy And Techniques To Win Your Opponent

by Robert Colton

Backgammon is a two-person game in which each player has fifteen pieces (checkers in the United States or men in other countries) that move between twenty-four triangles (points) based on the outcome of two dice rolls. The goal of the game is to be the first to bear off, that is, to remove all fifteen pieces from the board.
Backgammon is a game of strategy and chance (from rolling dice). While the dice may influence the outcome of a single game, the stronger player will amass a superior record over the course of many games. With each roll of the dice, players must choose from a variety of possible moves for their pieces and predict possible opponent counter-moves. With the optional use of a doubling cube, players can increase the stakes throughout the game.
More so, winning at backgammon requires an understanding of which strategies and techniques are most effective against your opponent. As a backgammon player, the more knowledge and experience you have, the easier it will be for you to determine which techniques will work. To enhance your backgammon game, you must first master the rules, then employ techniques such as doubling, holding, and blitzing, and finally increase your knowledge of the game by playing more frequently.

About the author

I became interested in Roman history at a very young age. While always reading or writing, I didn’t know that my true passion would be the invention of my trio of fictional characters attempting to make their way in Pompeii, until I was reading "The Robe" by Lloyd C. Douglas. I am a fan of the happily ever after conclusions,and "The Robe" did not offer that.
I put my other unending writing projects down and started typing the tale of a young noble Roman who was a bit less noble than Douglas’s hero. After years of research on Pompeii and the details of Rome that would have influenced a likeable, and unfortunate young man, an entire world came together for me. "Pompeii: A Tale of Murder in Ancient Rome" is just the beginning.
A fan of autumn and a lover of animals, I am always reading something that takes me back to the glory days of Rome. I stumble through the day, quoting Cicero and daydreaming about a time long gone, but not forgotten.
