When I first started to try and learn how to play backgammon I didn’t do it in the smartest way.  I got interested by watching the pros play on television, it looked like a lot of fun.  So, I went out and bought a backgammon board and a book on the rules and strategies and got started.  I grabbed my little brother to play and, well, it went nowhere fast.  It’s one thing to read about backgammon rules and strategies, it’s another to play them, especially with two people who had no clue how to play backgammon.

Since none of my friends offered more hope, I thought my backgammon days were done before they started.  Then I leaned about internet backgammon.  I saw an ad for an onli
ne casino during a commercial break for one of the televised games and I jumped on.  Internet backgammon definitely saved my backgammon future.
Playing online is definitely the best way to learn how to play backgammon.  You get access to rules and strategy but, more importantly, to thousands of other players around the world.  I started by playing a free site against a computer to so I wouldn’t embarrass myself and then moved on to playing real people.  With that kind of experience it wasn’t long before I was becoming a confident backgammon player.  After awhile I moved onto the real money games and haven’t turned back since.

Today I make a nice profit and have a ton of fun playing online and it’s all thanks to internet backgammon giving me the perfect place to learn how to play backgammon and then to make money playing.
