Publisher's summary

Backgammon - how to play and win the cruelest game.

Why is it called the cruelest game? Because you can be a tournament-winning player with all the skills required to win every match, and a rookie can beat you simply because the dice fell right for them. Why is it called the beautiful game? Because if you are the rookie player, it is breathtaking how much luck you can have, and the feeling you get from winning is immense.

Why buy this book rather than other guides?

Put simply, this is an in-depth study of all things backgammon. Other books rely on diagrams of boards with checkers on them and what to do next, which suits some people, but can be a bit dull. Of course, you learn by playing the game, but what else helps you get better?

  • Playing games from history that are the forerunners of the modern game
  • Learning online and taking courses that are simple to understand and enjoy
  • Learn the rookie mistakes and how to avoid them
  • Discover how to play every possible opening roll
  • Use the doubling cube like a pro
  • Find out if your favorite celebrity or historical hero is in the backgammon hall of fame
  • Discover if you have the characteristics of a great backgammon player
  • Find the health benefits that come from playing backgammon

Don’t miss the chance to get better quickly and enjoyably by buying this book and joining the backgammon family. Backgammon players share a real community feeling, and you can become a part of it today.
