BG Tips & Lessons

If you would like to receive some free instruction at DailyGammon, please send an "invite" for a "friendly game" to "Carl James." ALL WE ASK in return is that you use our Amazon links (or other affiliate links when you make purchases from Amazon.

If you would like more than just some friendly tips -- and would like lessons -- just communicate with Carl James on DailyGammon who will arrange for lessons at reasonable rates -- where proceeds benefit a non-profit.

You can ask us questions about positions or why we made certain moves along the way. We'll also give comments in interesting positions or key moments in a game along the way. AND if you would like more -- or less -- commentary, just say the word :)

Our staff includes some high-intermediate to advanced players so most players can benefit or at least have fun with this. DG's top players are welcome to give us a lesson :) It's all fun, right?

New Book - "Maximum Backgammon"

One of our contributors, came out with a backgammon book called, "Maximum Backgammon." It is selling well at Amazon (in its category) -- and has good reviews. The author, Carl James, says that he wanted to help people "maximize their backgammon game, in the minimum amount of (study) time."

The book is purposely kept short; the author says that this was done intentionally because he "wanted readers to know they could improve their overall games without committing a ton of time." Many pages have two backgammon board charts -- so that we think the book could have easily been over one hundred pages.

The book seems like it should help players of all levels from the novice to intermediate and even some advanced players. The book is available at Amazon (free shipping over $25 orders) as well as from the publisher -- at BCDadvisor's e- store at a discount (click on "Selected Titles;" shipping charges apply).
