In Response To: Solving backgammon sequences (Nack Ballard)

Do you use a bot to check what would be correct plays when you solve retro backgammon problems?

If you do, then I can understand how solving these problems can be beneficial to your backgammon skills.

If you don't use a bot (because you already know the possible correct plays), then I don't understand how solving retro backgammon problems is an efficient use of your practice time.

Please elaborate. TY! :-)
