Back to Backgammon School
|
Online backgammon schools as featured in sites such as www.play65.com will teach you how to play well in backgammon. Here you will learn different tips and tricks. They even guide you to different moves during the course of the game. The key advantage is that they show you in real life simulation exactly when to double and which the best move to make. Most schools use automated software, so it is very easy to show wrong moves or less effective moves in turn.
They also have the advantage of revoking a particular turn to show you what the best possible move is.
Backgammon schools look analytically at the result of any movement using the theory of probability, and then bring it down it into practice to show you the actual moves and how to implement them in a real game.
For example the tutor may insist you go for a double, but you're not sure if that is the right move, this is where the school teaching becomes invaluable, as you are shown the play, and then it is analised to prove this was the best play to make. If on the other hand you decline the double the school will show you the effects of such a decision.
Another big advantage of an online school is that they bring together some backgammon experts at various times to reply to your questions. Although this is good PR for the site it does however give you the opportunity to quiz legends of the game like Bill Robertie or Tim Holland online to pick their backgammon brains. These questions are then often extended into many backgammon forums or chat rooms such as www.play65.com.
