Safety or Greed?
Ok so I made the wrong
play either way you look at it. I was pretty sure I was going to get the
gammon so I just wanted to avoid being hit. But hey.. why not go for
the BACKGAMMON and win the match right now? Taking two off here not only
gets me closer to winning the rare doubled backgammon, its a safer
play.
Keys to Remember:
Always try to leave an even
number of checkers on the last two points when bearing off in contact
positions to avoid the nightmare doubles that give your opponent a chance. And
go for the backgammon and the win when you have the chance. It is just oh so
satisfying when you pull off a 6pt game.
