Rules of Backgammon
Rules of Backgammon
Each player has 15 checkers or pips
(The player automatically has white
checkers, and the computer has the
black checkers). The checkers must
first be moved around the points and
into each playerʼs own inner table.
The first player to remove (bear
off) all 15 of his checkers from
his inner table will win the game.
• Each
player
moves
his
checkers
according
to
the
numbers shown on the two dice.
• You can move the same
checker more than once. You
can move multiple checkers
according to the numbers on the dice.
• You must move once for the
number on one die and again for
the number on the other die,
not the total of the two dice.
