Abstract
In two person perfect information games with chance, the players theoretically can know their probability of winning, p(t). In the game treated herein, p(t) is assumed to be continuous. As the game progresses, players can bet, following the fixed rules for betting, that they will win. Optimal strategies are derived for the original backgammon betting rules, and for a variety of other betting rules. (Author)
