Double or roll? « Last Edit: January 20, 2010, 05:21:57 PM by ah_clem » Logged FIBS Board backgammon forum Game 2 Move 4 Blitzxz double / 5-5 to play « on: January 20, 2010, 11:43:48 AM » blitzxz Fibsboarder plus Posts: 377 Re: Game 2 Move 4 Blitzxz double? « Reply #1 on: January 20, 2010, 04:42:45 PM » This isn't easy either. Normally I would roll without too much thinking but in this score gammons have extra value. My position just looks way too chaotic. Could I still have enough gammons for double? I certanly have some market losers. But forum also has 1-point anchor which could save some of the gammons or forum might get saviour from backgame. I have big lead in pips but only 1-point board. I think I roll, no double. Logged ah_clem Moderator Advanced Fibsboarder Posts: 2,114 Re: Game 2 Move 4 Blitzxz double? « Reply #2 on: January 20, 2010, 05:21:29 PM » Your roll is 5-5.

I'm going for double/pass or gammon here. « Last Edit: January 20, 2010, 08:08:13 PM by blitzxz » Logged FIBS Board backgammon forum Re: Game 2 Move 4 Blitzxz double? « Reply #3 on: January 20, 2010, 06:58:20 PM » Print Pages: 1 Go Up « previous next » Tags: FIBS Board backgammon forum / Forum / Backgammon / Fibsboard Forum Matches / FFM4 (Moderator: ah_clem) / Game 2 Move 4 Blitzxz double / 5-5 to play
