Bleeding_Heart1 Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 Recentally ive been playing backgammon online and im hooked on it. Its free(play with fake money) but you can play with money if you choose. I encourage people on the boards to join and play. Maybe we can designate a room to play on?

Luck in backgammon represents 10 units. When you're new and your skill level is 2 or 3, luck seems overwhelmingly important. When you get better, your skill level might be 20 units. When you get into a certain range, skill might represent 50-80 units and then it becomes very small. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjt486 Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 How is the learning curve in that backgammon? Ive never tried and I have no clue how to begin. Perhaps I will look into it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonthert Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 Steep. You have to learn how to separate superstition from statistical probability and evaluate things after probability trashed them...was it a poor move or was it bad luck?
