In Response To: Learning - What if can only play one number ? (piotr)

Welcome to the game and to this website!

I recommend putting in your web browser's bookmarks (or just in your brain) the following:

http://www.bkgm.com/

Unfortunately the title The Encyclopedia of Backgammon is being used by something that (although an excellent reference for what it does have) is a huge mis-title. Tom Keith's site (above) is as close to such an encyclopedia that exists today, at least in the English language. His glossary alone is unmatched and unthreatened.

Look there under "Rules of Backgammon", specifically in the third frame, item #4. There lies your answer. That site holds many answers to questions I've had over the years, and I suspect to many questions you'll eventually have, too.
