Download or read book Backgammon (Reprint Edition) written by Millard Hopper and published by . This book was released on 2013-10 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Champion checkers player Millard Hopper wrote this informative guide to another popular board game, backgammon. Hopper covers game play, strategies, and tactics simply but in detail (and with plenty of illustrations). He notes: "Backgammon, while holding a wealth of strategy and skill does not require the exacting concentration of chess and checkers. While luck plays a great part in the results of the game where players are evenly matched, still, a skillful player when paired against a haphazard one, will far excel his inexperienced adversary." Hopper gives the student of backgammon the tools needed to increase his skill on the board.

This book was released on 2017-09-15 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Backgammon and Draughts (or Checkers) Backgammon remains in precisely the condition in which it was left over a hundred years ago, by Edmond Hoyle, Gent. In this short account of the game are given the preliminary instructions which Hoyle and others almost invariably omit. Hoyle presumes on his reader's general knowledge of the manner of playing the various games, and begins his account of Backgammon with a calcu lation of chances and a table of odds against throw ing certain numbers on two dice. This, the mere gambling element of the game, is not primarily necessary for the amateur's instruction. When he knows how to play Backgammon, he will soon acquire facility in making wagers on his success. It is a pleasant evidence of advancement in morals, that most of the games our forefathers played for heavy stakes are now ordinarily played for love. Chess, Draughts, Backgammon, Whist, and most of the card games, are better played for amusement than for money.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Hand Book of Draughts and Backgammon: The Draught Player's Hand Book As the grand object of the game consists in bringing round your men into your own inner table, all throws that contribute towards that end, and prevent your adversary from doing the same are advantageous, and vice versé. During the progress of the game you should endeavour to block up or detain a part of your adversary's men, in your own tables; and to obstruct his re-entering such of them as you may happen to have taken up, unless all your own men have passed his main body, and are so far advanced to your inner table (which we will here call home) as to possess the best chance, should he seek to win by running away. At the commencement of the game the players must agree towards which end of the board they will play. Each party plays into one of the tables on his own side} thus, if Black plays into his left-hand table, White plays into his right (i. E. That which is exactly opposite, ) and vice send, their men advancing in contra-position to each other, as in the annexed diagram.

Download or read book Laws of the Game written by Manfred Eigen and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 1993-04-11 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using game theory and examples of actual games people play, Nobel laureate Manfred Eigen and Ruthild Winkler show how the elements of chance and rules underlie all that happens in the universe, from genetic behavior through economic growth to the composition of music. To illustrate their argument, the authors turn to classic games--backgammon, bridge, and chess--and relate them to physical, biological, and social applications of probability theory and number theory. Further, they have invented, and present here, more than a dozen playable games derived from scientific models for equilibrium, selection, growth, and even the composition of RNA.

Download or read book How We Decide written by Jonah Lehrer and published by Houghton Mifflin Harcourt. This book was released on 2010-01-14 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first book to use the unexpected discoveries of neuroscience to help us make the best decisions Since Plato, philosophers have described the decision-making process as either rational or emotional: we carefully deliberate, or we “blink” and go with our gut. But as scientists break open the mind’s black box with the latest tools of neuroscience, they’re discovering that this is not how the mind works. Our best decisions are a finely tuned blend of both feeling and reason—and the precise mix depends on the situation. When buying a house, for example, it’s best to let our unconscious mull over the many variables. But when we’re picking a stock, intuition often leads us astray. The trick is to determine when to use the different parts of the brain, and to do this, we need to think harder (and smarter) about how we think. Jonah Lehrer arms us with the tools we need, drawing on cutting-edge research as well as the real-world experiences of a wide range of “deciders”—from airplane pilots and hedge fund investors to serial killers and poker players. Lehrer shows how people are taking advantage of the new science to make better television shows, win more football games, and improve military intelligence. His goal is to answer two questions that are of interest to just about anyone, from CEOs to firefighters: How does the human mind make decisions? And how can we make those decisions better?
