Backgammon is one of the oldest board games in existence. Backgammon dates back more than 4000 years and is believed to have been developed by the ancient Egyptians.
Backgammon is not a game of luck as many perceive, but rather, a strategic visual game of war; in many ways it is as difficult to master as chess.
Although an element of luck is involved, a skilled backgammon player uses intuition, calculations, creativity and psychology to beat the opponent.
The goal in backgamon online is to move all own checkers into the home board and then bear them off (i.e. remove them from the backgammon board). The first backgammon player to remove all of his checkers wins the backgammon game.
The Help section of Backgammon Live Online presents rules and strategies for backgammon. You will learn the best ways to play your opening rolls, how to Build a Blockade, how to Establish Anchors, how to Optimize Distribution of Checkers and how to Reduce 'Good' Rolls for the Opponent.
The backgammon strategies section describes When to Expose Checkers vs. When to Consolidate Them and how to make a decision When to Hit or not to Hit opponent's backgammon checker.
Although backgammon is a very old game, it still continues to fascinate its numerous fans around the globe. It is no wonder that nowadays there are many spellings and acronyms of the game's name. Backgammon can be referred to as: gammon, backgamon and even baggamon, baggammon and bagamon and bagammon! In Greece and Turkey, backgammon is known as tavla. In Iran and Russia, they call backgammon nardi.
If backgammon were strictly a game of chance, players would only be expected to win on average just about one half of their games. Yet, just like in chess, stronger backgammon players consistently win games against backgammon newbies. There is a lot more skill required in backgammon than just rolling the dice and mindlessly racing checkers around the board!

Do you know the difference between 'gammon' and 'backgammon' in backgammon matches?
A gammon is a completed game of backgammon in which the losing player has not borne off any checkers.
A gammon is also called a double game because the winner receives twice the value of the doubling cube.
A backgammon is a completed game of backgammon in which the losing player has not borne off any checkers and still has one or more checkers on the bar or in the winner's home board.
A backgammon is also called a triple game because the winner receives three times the value of the doubling cube.

Awesome game, but desperately needs the randomness of the dice improved... I can regularly predict what's going to roll... It's a miserable experience... Also, if the other player resigns when it's not their turn, you don't get the Invite button again, so have to leave... If they quit when it's not their turn, you get booted from the table! Seriously annoying

after playing two matches I can say I like the game, however there are some possible improvements: 1) the dices could be better looking 2) the chat is quite long to access and then again to come back to the table, while playing it is difficult to chat within a few seconds until you get a warning. 3) if the opponent give up while he has a checker(s) on the bar or you have a chance for a gammon, you should score double. 4) I get many rejections when I join a table, would be better to have also the reason for rejection. update: one aspect made me lower the game to only 2 stars. there are unfair players who will reconnect all the time if you are in position to win, therefore you get only 9 points even if you were playing a double for 160 points. otherwise in any case most of player give up before ending the match and you get much less points than for a fair win... need improvements here!

Love the online aspect but at times dice are just a little too unbelievable to comprehend. Still the best game on Android for backgammon for online play though.

I've been playing for over one year. I play almost every week. I play free because i must. The players are 99% civil, usually friendly. The hard part is the rating system, which is an algorithm transplanted from vhess or bridge or somewhere. The risk/reward does not allow playing others with rankings more than 30 points different.
