  I have a very good method for analyzing "one man back" cube actions. What I basically do is look at three main factors:
  The race.
  The offensive position.
  The counter potential of the "one man back" player.
  In the positions I will try to show you how the factors weigh compared to each other, so that you can get a feel for them. I have gotten a feel for these positions by studying lots and lots of refrence position. I hope you will enjoy the video and the positions.

  Doubles fours on the second roll is always a joker. The most common play is to advance the anchor from the 24pt to the 20pt and also make the 9pt. Double fours is especially powerful when Black attacks. However, there are a few positions in which Black should pass up the hit in favor making the 20pt and 9pt. Understanding how to play 44 on the second roll will be a great help in figuring out how to play 44 on subsequent rolls of the game.

  Doubles threes on the second roll is always a joker. Black will usually advance his anchor from the 24pt to the 21pt and then usually make the 10pt or 5pt. If White has a blot on Black's 7pt, 5pt or 3pt, then Black should forget about advancing his anchor and play the entire roll by attacking on his side of the board. If White fans, the correct cube action is mentioned. Understanding how to play 33 on the second roll will be a great help in figuring out how to play 33 on the third, fourth and fifth rolls of the game.

  Double deuces on the second roll is always a joker. This lecture explains the reasons that making the 20pt is always wrong for money with 22 on the second roll. After making the 4pt, you will usually make either the 11pt or the 22pt. The pros and cons of making the 11pt versus the 4pt are discussed. When 22 on the second roll hits your opponent's blot and he fans, the resulting cube action in the early position is also discussed.

  :
  
  Although double aces on the second roll is always a terrific roll, surprisingly enough, it is frequently misplayed even at this early stage of the game. Although making the 5pt and 7pt is usually best, there are some situations where splitting (24/22) is better with the last two aces than making the 7pt and leaving a blot and indirect shots on the 8pt. The backgammon student who learns this concept will be able to apply it in later stages of the game to both double aces and other rolls, as well.

  The best way to begin a serious study of the game of backgammon is with an examination of how to play the fifteen opening rolls. In order to become competent at playing matches, you have to understand the reasons you frequently make different plays depending on the match scores. The best place to begin to learn how the match score affects checker play is with a look at the different ways the opening rolls should be played depending on the match score.
  Although it may seem simple, the surprising truth is that very few players know how to correctly play the fifteen opening rolls at all match scores.
