Gambling with the backgammon doubling cube is a great way to add more risk and up the stakes of your backgammon game. Gambling with the backgammon doubling cube is easy. All you need to do is organize the stakes of the game as follows, make each game worth a point. Each point should be worth an agreed amount of money or other thing that is valuable to both you and your opponent. For instance you could tell your opponent, each point is worth 1 free diner to the winner.

Gambling with the backgammon doubling cube makes it so that you can double the points in a game. The player can request to double the points and if his opponent does not agree he has to forfeit the game and the player gets an automatic point. One thing to remember when gambling with the backgammon doubling cube is that the player can double again after the first player has doubled, when it is his or her chance to roll. Using the doubling cube can intimidate the other player and it is also a great tool for someone who is courageous playing against someone who is scared to take risks.

The doubling cube does not have to be used at all in backgammon. It's just a fun option which can add strategy and risk which could be lacking for some players in a game with out the cube. Remember that the cube is just an object which keeps track of the doubling; it is not actually rolled like dice.
