If you have a match log, it should be possible to analyze the match, however, JellyFish only allows you to analyse the match move-wise, i.e. you have to analyse every single move. Very annoying if you have a 9-pointer with more than 400 moves to analyze   :sleep:

Also, JellyFish is not the strongest software any more. Snowie and GNU Backgammon are significantly stronger.

So I'd recommend to install GNUBG. There you get the possibility to analyze whole matches.

Definitely download Gnu and learn to use it with Zorba's excellent guide. Also, don't play on GammonEmpire! There are serious doubts as to their reliability! Stick to fibs.
