Hi Teddy,
The luckier player wins a lot of the time. However, I’ve definitely seen many games where the luckier player had played badly enough
to still lose. It’s often me! Perhaps you’re sample size is not large enough. That’s all I can suggest. (I’m not sure what happens if you play on any setting lower than ‘expert’). Best regards, Ian Shaw From: Bug-gnubg <bug-gnubg-bounces+ian.shaw=riverauto.co.uk@gnu.org>
On Behalf Of hereodt Z Dear all who created GNUBg, Thank you for your wonderful, GREAT software. It provided me with countless hours of fun and relaxation.Maybe a little TOO much, but that's my problem ;). How come the winner, be it me or the computer, is always the luckiest player? I thought backgammon was a game of skill. 'Course, luck plays a role, but the outcome of the game to be SOLELY based on LUCK?! C'mon! How is it possible? Let's say I am not skilled and indeed, I can win only if I get lucky . But the computer is World Class, after all. How come IT never wins when it is less lucky than me? Thank you and Best regards, Teddy |
