In Response To: non-backgammon backgammon books (David Rockwell)

From "Think Like a Grandmaster" By Alexander Kotov (paraphrased)

"BLUNDERS

* Dizziness due to success: slow down and look when winning position

* Conditioned reflexes: what is different about this position?

* Blindspot (missed move/missed reply): mechanical remedies: write down the move first"

Blindspot mechanical remedies for BG: A) “look away from board” and then recheck the move. B) move one checker (combo) and then reexamine the board.
