To Bear off
the Checkers
—
The player begins to bear off the
checkers from the board when all 15
of his checkers have been moved into
his inner home table. In Diagram 2, if
a six and a four are rolled, a checker
from the four-point is removed. Since
there are no checkers on the six-point,
a checker on the next highest point, in
this case the five-point, is removed.
—Rules of
Backgammon—
•
Each player moves his checkers
according to the numbers shown on
the two dice.
•
You can move the same checker
more than once or any other checkers
in any combination possible.
•
You must move once for the num-
ber on one die and again for the num-
ber on the other die, not the total of
the two dice.
•
Each player moves his checkers
from his opponent's inner home table
to his own inner home table.
•
When you have two or more
checkers on a point (a closed point),
your opponent is not permitted to
land on that point.
•
When you land on a point that is
occupied by one of your opponent's
checkers, that checker is bumped off
the board and is placed on the bar in
the middle.
•
When you throw doubles, you can
make 4 moves with the same checker
or move any other checkers in any
combination possible.
•
You may move to any point that
is: 1) clear of any other checkers, 2)
occupied by one or more of your own
checkers or 3) occupied by only one
of your opponent's checkers. Your
opponent's checker is then removed
to the bar.
•
When all 15 checkers are in a
player's inner home table, the player
can begin to bear off the checkers
from the board.
If no button is pushed for four minutes,
your e-Backgammon will switch off to save your
batteries. Just push the
ON
button
to continue where you left off.
—Special Care & Handling—
• Avoid rough handling such as bumping or dropping.
• Avoid moisture and extreme temperatures. For best results, use between the
temperatures of 39ºF and 100ºF (4º C and 38º C).
• Clean using only a slightly damp cloth. Do not use cleaners with chemical
agents.
