Plakoto a variant of Backgammon is often a well-liked game in Greece. The motive behind wagering Plakoto is to bring all your pieces around to your very own home board and then get them off. The player who bears off all of his pieces 1st wins the game. This casino game is usually enjoyed along with the 2 other variants of backgammon, namely Fevga and Portes. Together these 3 games are known as Tavli and are played in sequence usually one right after the other. They have matches of three, five or seven points. A Bulgarian version of Plakoto is identified as Tapa.

Each player has fifteen pieces to begin with. These checkers are placed on challenger’s 1-point. The players need to proceed their pieces in diverse direction about the Plakato board. At the start off of the casino game each player rolls 1 die and the player with the highest roll gets the chance to start. Unlike Backgammon the player has to again toss the dice to begin his first turn. A gambler who has won a game starts the next casino game. The number of factors, or pips, or the places a gambler can move his checkers is decided by the roll of the dice.

In the game of online backgammon Plakoto, a piece may be positioned only on an open stage. An open stage could be the one that’s not occupied by 2 or far more pieces of the opponent. The numbers that appear following rolling the two dices produce separate moves .For example, if a gambler rolls four and two, he may possibly move a piece four spaces to an open stage and 1 additional piece two spaces to an open point. A gambler also has an choice to proceed a single piece to a totla of six spaces to an open place the precondition for this single move is that the intermediate items (4 or 2 spaces from the beginning position) must also be open.

The doubles in Plakoto are played twice. As an example, a toss of 3-3 means that the gambler can use the three’s four times. If it’s possible the player must use both the numbers of the toss and all four numbers in the case he draws a double in the roll of dices.

Hitting is not allowed in the casino game of internet based backgammon Plakoto. In its place, if a gambler lands over a point occupied by an opposition’s individual checker, the opposition can not move his piece unless the player moves his piece. In other words the challenger’s checker is trapped. A block is produced by two pieces of the gambler lying on the place or 1 of his checkers pinning the opposition’s checker.

Mother piece is the last piece over a gambler’s beginning position. It’s quite significant to win a internet backgammon Plakoto casino game. If the mother piece gets pinned by challenger’s checker before it has left the beginning place – the casino game is over and two points are lost. This specific rule has an exemption if the opponent has his own mother piece at the starting position. A game in which mom piece of both the gamblers are pinned results in a tie.

Bearing off in the casino game of web backgammon Plakoto starts soon after a gambler has moved all of his 15 pieces on his home board. A gambler can get off by tossing a number that corresponds to the point on which the piece is placed. If there is no checker about the level indicated by the toss, then the gambler has to generate a legal move using a piece over a higher-numbered position. If you’ll find no pieces on higher-numbered points, the player must eliminate a piece from the highest place that has a checker. In this way he can get rid of all of his pieces from your board

The 1st player who gets off all his 15 pieces is declared as the winner of the game. If the losing player has successfully borne off at least 1 piece, he loses only one place; otherwise two factors are lost.
