I find it excellent for forcing me to see alternative moves while thinking Herb in process of reading. So far, I find it excellent for forcing me to see alternative moves while thinking about best placement. Now I am interested in probability.. super helpful i keep going back to this book to relearn what it has taught me! backgammon is easy when the dice go your way. this book puts you in tough positions and tight spots and helps you get out of them. makes me a much more robust player.. "A good set of flashcard problems" according to Steve Cothran. The 501 positions examine your approach to the game from beginning to end.Robertie's solutions so closely mirror my JellyFish Tutor recommendations that I have simply dropped the examples into JellyFish and only consult the book when I have a disagreement with the bot.Therein is the second value in this book for me: Robertie's analysis is succinct and sticks to themes over theory. When I do perhaps 50 positions quickly, only noting where I differ from the bot, and then read Robertie's suggestions for these positions, I usually find a recurring theme pointing to a weakness in my game.For
