is a backgame the way to win a game of cloning gammon ?
in normal backgammon i only go for a backgame when i am in serious trouble already ... but i see some high ranked players on here aim for a backgame from the start

in the first games against these players i didnt notice and lost .. now i notice it from the start but i am still playing it as i normally would to see what would happen

what does everyone think of a backgame in cloning gammon ?
