Backgammon Terms starting with 'J'
Jacoby Rule - Invented by Oswald Jacoby. This rule is used in money play and states that unless either player has accepted a double, gammons and backgammons will count only as a single game. The rule eliminates situations where a player has passed up the opportunity to double and therefore speeds up play. It actually encourages him to double at the right time.
Jellyfish - A medium strength computer program developed by neural networks that plays and analyzes positions and entire matches.
Jeopardy - The potential to have awkward rolls on an upcoming turn.
