Backgammon lesson 2: Roll and move

Two dice, blocked points and lucky doubles. Pip is setting up the board…

In this lesson

  • Every turn you roll two dice. Each die moves one checker that many points.
  • Watch out! If your friend has 2 or more checkers on a point, it is blocked. You cannot land there.
  • Doubles are lucky! Roll two of the same number and you get FOUR moves.
