Play Backgammon with Precision Dice

If you're new to the backgammon world, don't be offended if other players refuse to play backgammon with your straight edged dice. There is only one type of dice commonly accepted by most players. Precision dice differ in appearance than other dice; instead of painted on numbers, the pips are usually inlaid and under the surface. This ensures that they cannot be tampered with. Precision backgammon dice corners are rounded instead of straight, giving them a greater number of rolls per throw, and are often transparent, proving that they cannot be weighted.

People all over the world play backgammon with precision dice. They are also the only dice used in backgammon tournaments big and small. They come in a variety of sizes depending on the manufacturer, however the most popular are the half inch variety and the 7/16. The half inch is useful if you have a small backgammon board as they have a higher roll count, although some people who like to play backgammon prefer the 7/16 backgammon dice as the pips are easier to read than the half inch.

Precision dice come in a variety of attractive colors and sizes to suit any backgammon board. They offer people peace of mind when they play backgammon because it is almost impossible to alter the dice without leaving obvious signs of damage.
