The importance of finding a good backgammon guide

A student is only as good as his teacher: The art of becoming a great backgammon player is no exception to this rule. A good backgammon guide can take you from basic to advanced player with the ease of the click of a mouse. In order to advance in your game and become the greatest player that you can be, you must have a guide to lead you.

Your backgammon site will provide you with a basic backgammon guide that will introduce you to the rules of the game as well as any site regulations. This is a good place to start as it will ensure that you know how to play online backgammon.

For a more advanced backgammon guide however, it is a good idea to ask others for advice. Your backgammon site will have a forum on which you can ask general or specific questions relating to online backgammon, your game or to finding a guide. The people posting on the forum are dab-hands at the game and will most likely give you tactical advice themselves or direct you to a backgammon guide that they themselves have found useful.

In addition to your preferred backgammon site and to the advice of fellow players; there are many independent online backgammon sites and pages, many of which provide excellent guides. When looking for a guide on these sites, do not hesitate to contact the webmaster for help or advice, they will be happy to assist you.
