checkers wins the game. So when it comes down to it, backgammon basically all depends on the “luck of the roll.” And just in case you missed something I’ve said, I will restate the main points and rules of the game. A checker may be moved only to an open point, one that is not occupied by two or more opposing checkers. The numbers on the two dice constitute separate moves. A player who rolls doubles plays the numbers shown on the dice twice. A player must use both numbers of a roll if this is legally possible. If an opposing checker lands on a blot, the blot is hit and placed on the bar. Any time a player has one or more checkers on the bar, his first obligation is to enter those checker(s) into the opposing home board. Once a player has moved all of his fifteen checkers into his home board, he may commence bearing off. Now that you all know how to play this great game I hope somebody in this classroom will start playing in their free time or maybe just forget everything that I have said today. Thank you....
