Play Backgammon

Backgammon School

Our Backgammon School allows you to play backgammon with an online teacher who analyses every move you make, approves your choices or shows you how to do better. The Backgammon School is available in Money Play only. Joining a Backgammon School table is free of charge. All wagers do not affect your bankroll as this is only an instructional mode of the software. All you have to do is register for a Money Play account.

The Backgammon School can help you:

  • Improve your playing skills
  • Learn when it is right to offer a double, accept a double or resign
  • Improve your strategy so you can win more cash!

Step 1: Starting your lesson

1 Click on the One-on-One Tab in the backgammon lobby.

4 Click on Start Game to accept the game terms.

Step 2: Start playing

My = your move

3 = the third best move
When your move is the best, My appears at the top of the list. If not, My will appear in second, third or fourth position.

5 Click on Done when you are satisfied with your final move.


Step 3: Learning to Double

When the Backgammon Teacher knows you should double, it notifies you with a pop-up message.

When you are offered a double, the Teacher recommends if you should accept or refuse.
