Emne: Back gammon does not count triple??

Modifisert av Aganju (14. januar 2012, 00:31:29)

In this game, I would have expected to get a 'backgammon' meaning three points, multiplied by the cube of 2, resulting in 6 points. However, I got four. Can someone explain me why?
He has not borne off anything, he has a piece still on the home bar, the doubling cube was used and accepted. So what is missing??

Aganju: The piece on the bar is a "race piece", which your opponent can bring in at any time. Presumably Fencer forgot to include those in the is-a-backgammon calculation.

playBunny: Wonder is it works in regular old backgammon... would be rare but possible.
