Hello,
About openings for Backgammon :
In the opening, I thought that with dices 2-1, it was advisable to play
12-14 and 1-2.
I have just bought Bill Robertie's book " 501 Essential Backgammon
Problems " and
I am surprised seeing that he proposes: 12-14 and 19-20.
19-20 seems to me very risky. Of what do you think of it?
