Rules of Backgammon

Backgammon is a game where users compete 2, being played on a board that has 24 triangles called tips. These triangles have two alternate colors and are grouped into 4 quadrants, formed by 6 triangles each. These quadrants are named player board, board of rival outer board and outer board rival. Boards and external players are separated by a border called the bar.

The points are numbered for each user. Starting from the board player, the point which is furthest from the user has the value 24, which correspond to the value a rival player. Each player has 15 pieces of a given color and 2 dice. There is also a bet as given called double or double cube. The same is numbered by 2, 4, 8, 16, 32 and 64. This type of die is used to carry out registration of betting. The objective of playing backgammon is trying to mobilize the chips to make it to the board of the player and remove it. The player to remove their cards first wins.

A player draws a card board to roll the dice if you get the value of the point where the tab is located. A clear example is if for example a 7 is rolled the dice, you can remove a tab that is in the top 7. The backgammon is committed to a certain fixed amount before starting the game. Each user starts with a dot. During the game, the player who believes they have more advantage than his opponent can offer double the initial bet. This is only possible to do at the beginning of each user's turn and before you throw the dice.

If the opponent refuses, forfeit the game and the game is terminated, having to pay the winner the corresponding point. Conversely, if you agree to double the bet, the game continues to double the initial bet amount and is marked with a double bet given the new point. At that time only rival who can be double the bet. There is no limit to the beating in the game of backgammon. Note that there are certain rules that do not apply if both players are not in agreement with them. These are called electives.
