DICE SET REPLACEMENT GAME FOR BACKGAMMON SET WITH DOUBLING DICE

Product Information

The first is known as tops and bottoms, where the numbers on the dice are changed so that only three numbers are represented on each die (each number will be represented on two faces of the die). This can be difficult to spot for an inexperienced player. For example, consider a set of two dice one with the numbers 4, 5, & 6 and the other with the numbers 1, 2, & 3. Using these dice, you cannot roll 2, 3, 4, & 11 and the most likely numbers are 6, 7, & 8. A hustler can use this tighter range of numbers to increase the probability of making the correct move. A close inspection of the dice prior to play should spot the irregularity. However, sleight of hand could see this type of dice switched in and out of play. Loaded dice An unusued die has a higher value than is required to bear any piece off. In which case, you may bear off the piece that's furthest from the end. Hypergammon is a game in which players have only three counters on the board, starting with one each on the 24, 23 and 22 points. With the aid of a computer this game was solved by Hugh Sconyers around 1994, meaning that exact equities for all cube positions are available for all 32 million possible positions. [54] [55]

Automatic doubles.If identical numbers are thrown on the first roll, the stakes are doubled. The doubling cube is turned to 2 and remains in the middle. Players usually agree to limit the number of automatic doubles to one per game.

A point hosting only one piece is called a "blot". Such a piece is vulnerable - if the opponent lands on this point the piece is captured and moved to the bar (this means physically placed on the middle bar dividing the board).

As the playing time for each individual game is short, it is often played in matches where victory is awarded to the first player to reach a certain number of points. A player must use both numbers of a roll if this is legally possible (or all four numbers of a double). When only one number can be played, the player must play that number. Or if either number can be played but not both, the player must play the larger one. When neither number can be used, the player loses his turn. In the case of doubles, when all four numbers cannot be played, the player must play as many numbers as he can.

An alternate arrangement is the reverse of the one shown here, with the home board on the left and the outer board on the right. Notice that the player who goes first never has doubleson their first turn because ties on the first roll are always broken. Q: What is the object of the game?

In fact, the use of BB in tournaments is becoming either a preference or a requirement, and in some cases imposed by the tournament director.
