Checkerplay.com An attractive website from German player Christian Liebe-Harkort  where you'll find a large collection (currently 847 and counting) of backgammon positions and problems. The positions are well organised through the use of tags so finding the type of position you want to refer to is quick and easy. Christian's default bot is eXtremeGammon so he's bang up to date with modern technology. But it's the Quiz Tool that I find really cool. All the positions on the site (to which members can add) can be played as a quiz; the board is clearly laid out, dice and cube decisions are easy to read, make your choice of play, click the submit button and you're quickly informed of your result for that position and given a new one. As a learning tool it's brilliant but it should come with an addictive warning! Visit checkerplay.com |
