Covering the basic rules of the game, elementary tactics and overall strategy (including dice probabilities and gambling aspects such as the right use of the "doubling cube"), Beginning Backgammon includes sample games used to show backgammon theories in practice. Alternative games that can be played on the backgammon board are also included.
