How to Play Backgammon

  • CheckmarkBackgammon is played by two players, each moving checkers around a 24-point board.
  • CheckmarkPlayers take turns rolling dice and moving their checkers. The first player to bear off all 15 checkers wins the round.
  • CheckmarkRecord the round score for each player. A normal win scores 1 point, a gammon (opponent bore off none) is worth 2 points, and a backgammon (opponent still has checkers on the bar or in home board) is worth 3 points. These values are multiplied by the doubling cube (1, 2, 4, 8, etc.).
  • CheckmarkThe doubling cube starts at 1 and can be doubled to 2, 4, 8, 16 and beyond. The final score of a round is multiplied by the cube value. Use it strategically to increase stakes when you have a positional advantage.
  • CheckmarkThe player with the highest cumulative score after all rounds wins the match.
