The XG2Anki service developed by Rainer Birkle allows the fully automated creation of Anki decks from XG match and position files.
You can download several free decks via this website. In addition, many particularly valuable decks, such as theme decks from Super Grandmaster Dirk Schiemann's position database, are offered for sale. Moreover, you can purchase Anki credit packages with an attractive discount scale, which you can then use to create Anki cards from your XG match and position files.
For latest news please check out Rainer's Facebook page:
Please browse through the screenshot gallery to get a first impression (you can use the arrow icons on top of the picture to go to the next or previous picture or you click directly on the picture to go to the next picture). The screenshots are taken from the Android version of Anki (AnkiDroid) using its dark theme (which is highly recommended because it looks so cool with the black & white XG diagrams). So with other versions/settings the Anki cards may look a bit different but should have the same content.

Super Grandmaster 
BMAB Titles

The lower your PR[1] gets, the harder it will be to lower it even further. We humans have the problem that we only have a limited amount of time available, which means that it is not enough to invest a lot of time in studying backgammon, we also need to do it in an efficient way. So we need to find a very effective method. After receiving my BMAB[2] title Grandmaster 1 (playing a PR below 3.0) in November 2021, I was still very ambitious to aim for the next titles such as Grandmaster 0 (PR below 2.75) and even Super Grandmaster (PR below 2.50), but I realized that this would not be so easy and indeed my PR stagnated for many months. In September 2022, I started my collaboration with my good friend Rainer Birkle, who had just developed his Anki Method (using digital flashcards). Based on my personal position database, we created many Anki decks, each deck contained 25 positions that had a common theme (e.g. 3rd roll, Leaving the Anchor, Against Backgame, etc.). I have to admit that while I really liked the method, at first I was a little skeptical about whether it would work for me personally. I'm so glad that I gave it a try, i.e. in the summer of 2023 I first started studying the decks we created for the general public. And a bit later I had Rainer create personal decks (usually based on mistakes I made in my matches). And what can I say? Only a few months later, in November 2023, I received the title Grandmaster 0 and just another few months later, in April 2024, I took another important step: Super Grandmaster 3 and just another few weeks later in July 2024 I got the Super Grandmaster 2 title. Together with Mochy I am now one of the only two Super Grandmasters in the world! Do you want to lower your PR and are you ready to work for it? Then you should definitely try Rainer's Anki Method. There is a lot of free material to get you started.

| Backgammon Match Theory | 175 | This deck contains a card for each gammon value and take point in a 7-point match. For all those who, like Rainer, think that gammon values and take points are very important during a match, but don't want to calculate anything at the board, this is the optimal tool to memorize this important data. | 2022-05-22 | 2024-11-17 |
| Neil's Numbers | 18 | You need a backup plan for the match scores for which you have not (yet) memorized the gammon values and take points. With Neil's Numbers you can derive the match winning chances for any match score and then calculate important metrics like gammon value and take point. | 2022-01-04 | 2024-11-17 |
| 1st Roll | 15 (15/0) | With this deck you can practice your opening rolls for tournament play. Each card shows the correct moves for money game, DMP, gammon-save and gammon-go! | 2023-12-20 | 2024-11-17 |

| D3rd1 | 9 € | Dirk's 3rd Roll (Part 1) | 25 (25/0) | It is very important to find the correct moves in the very early stages of the game simply because these positions come up over and over again. The positions in this deck deal with typical problems in the opening, for instance: "Should I hit or rather make an important point? Should I escape with one of my back checkers or play for contact? Should I split my back checkers or should I rather try to improve my front position?" | 2022-11-17 | 2024-11-17 |
| D3rd2 | 9 € | Dirk's 3rd Roll (Part 2) | 25 (25/0) | More 3rd roll positions. Note that all the positions are the result of correct checker plays on the two previous moves. In that sense they are "realistic" positions. | 2022-11-18 | 2024-11-17 |
| D3rd3 | 9 € | Dirk's 3rd Roll (Part 3) | 25 (25/0) | 25 more 3rd roll problems. | 2023-06-06 | 2024-11-17 |
| D3rd4 | 9 € | Dirk's 3rd Roll (Part 4) | 25 (25/0) | 25 more 3rd roll problems. | 2024-04-03 | 2024-11-17 |
| D4th1 | 9 € | Dirk's 4th Roll (Part 1) | 25 (25/0) | Like in the 3rd roll positions it is your second decision of the game but, unlike before, your opponent has already made two moves which generally leads to more complex decisions. | 2022-12-06 | 2024-11-17 |
| D4th2 | 9 € | Dirk's 4th Roll (Part 2) | 25 (25/0) | More 4th roll positions dealing with different topics that arise in the early game. | 2022-11-19 | 2024-11-17 |
| D4th3 | 9 € | Dirk's 4th Roll (Part 3) | 25 (25/0) | More 4th roll positions dealing with different topics that arise in the early game. | 2023-01-31 | 2024-11-17 |
| D4th4 | 9 € | Dirk's 4th Roll (Part 4) | 25 (25/0) | More 4th roll positions dealing with different topics that arise in the early game. | 2023-03-22 | 2024-11-17 |

| D4th6 | 9 € | Dirk's 4th Roll (Part 6) | 25 (25/0) | More 4th roll positions dealing with different topics that arise in the early game. | 2024-06-01 | 2024-11-17 |
| DAB | 9 € | Dirk's Against Backgame | 25 (25/0) | Playing against a backgame is difficult. The positions from this deck deal with the most common problems like: "Should I hit additional checkers? Should I try to get hit in order to destroy my opponent's timing? Should I keep my prime in front of my opponent's anchors or should I start breaking it?" | 2022-12-04 | 2024-11-17 |
| DBI1 | 9 € | Dirk's Bear In (Part 1) | 25 (25/0) | Many avoidable mistakes are made in the late stages of the game. Typical questions in the bear-in stage are which points you should clear first, how to distribute your checkers, or whether you should take some risk to achieve more flexibility. | 2023-12-02 | 2024-11-17 |
| DBI2 | 9 € | Dirk's Bear In (Part 2) | 25 (25/0) | More positions to help improve your bear-in technique. | 2023-12-02 | 2024-11-17 |
| DBO | 9 € | Dirk's Bear Off | 25 (25/0) | With this deck you can improve you bear off technique. In some positions it is only about maximum safety while in others you have to decide how much risk you should take in order to win more gammons. | 2022-12-04 | 2024-11-17 |
| DCO1 | 9 € | Dirk's Contact (Part 1) | 25 (25/0) | When trailing in the race by a lot, you need to hit an opposing checker to win. It therefore desirable to create as much contact as possible. How much risk you can take in order to maximize contact is one of the main topics in this deck. | 2023-12-06 | 2024-11-17 |
| DCO2 | 9 € | Dirk's Contact (Part 2) | 25 (25/0) | More positions on maximizing contact and how much risk you can take in order to do so. | 2023-12-07 | 2024-11-17 |
| DHL | 9 € | Dirk's Hit Loose | 25 (25/0) | One of the most common decisions in backgammon is whether to hit loose in your homeboard. When the play works, you can often improve your position significantly. However, by hitting loose you expose yourself at least to a direct shot. After a return hit you will lose a lot of ground in the race and your position will deteriorate. The positions of this deck should give you a feel when taking the risk is warranted and when it is not. | 2022-12-03 | 2024-11-17 |

| DHD | 9 € | Dirk's Homeboard Distribution | 25 (25/0) | When you play against XG you will notice that the machine sometimes leaves multiple blots in its home board. In other occasions, however, it avoids a blot at all costs. The deck deals with the question when to do one thing and when the other. | 2023-12-02 | 2024-11-17 |
| DHA1 | 9 € | Dirk's How to Attack (Part 1) | 25 (25/0) | In the positions of this deck it is clear that you should make an attacking play. The question is how to do it. Do you hit twice? Do you hit loose or play pick and pass? Do you switch points? | 2023-12-03 | 2024-11-17 |
| DHA2 | 9 € | Dirk's How to Attack (Part 2) | 25 (25/0) | More positions that shed a light on what is the best way to attack. | 2023-12-03 | 2024-11-17 |
| DHA3 | 9 € | Dirk's How to Attack (Part 3) | 25 (25/0) | Another set of positions on the topic of attacking. | 2023-12-03 | 2024-11-17 |
| DLA1 | 9 € | Dirk's Leaving the Anchor (Part 1) | 25 (25/0) | Establishing an advanced anchor is among the top priorities in the early game. At some point in the game, however, you will have to break your anchor and try to get your checkers home. This usually involves considerable risks, and thus makes it difficult to find the right time for abandoning the anchor. The positions in this deck illustrate the factors that influence the decision. | 2022-12-04 | 2024-11-17 |
| DLA2 | 9 € | Dirk's Leaving the Anchor (Part 2) | 25 (25/0) | The decision whether to leave your anchor or not comes up very often, and there are many factors to consider. This is why I made a second deck on the topic. | 2022-12-05 | 2024-11-17 |
| DMP | 9 € | Dirk's Midpoint | 25 (25/0) | The mid-point is a crucial link between your back checkers and the front part of your position. The topic of this deck is under which circumstances you may nevertheless need to give it up. | 2023-12-02 | 2024-11-17 |
| DOB | 9 € | Dirk's One Back Step Up | 25 (25/0) | Getting your lone back checker to safe territory is usually your top priority, especially when you are leading in the race. Stepping up in your opponent's home board gets the checker closer to home but comes with the risk of it being attacked. Whether you should expose yourself to the attack or whether you should stay back is the topic of this deck. | 2022-12-05 | 2024-11-17 |
| DPS | 9 € | Dirk's Prime Slot | 25 (25/0) | The fastest way of extending your prime is to slot the point that you want to make and cover the blot after it gets missed. By studying the positions in this deck you can get a feel for when the risk is worth the reward. | 2022-12-06 | 2024-11-17 |
| DWA1 | 9 € | Dirk's Whether To Attack (Part 1) | 25 (25/0) | In this deck the task it not to find the best way to attack but to decide whether you should attack at all. The decision can be very tricky, especially when you can either attack or prime your opponent. | 2023-12-05 | 2024-11-17 |
| DWA2 | 9 € | Dirk's Whether To Attack (Part 2) | 25 (25/0) | More positions where you have to decide whether you want to go for the attack or play quietly. | 2023-12-04 | 2024-11-17 |
| DWA3 | 9 € | Dirk's Whether To Attack (Part 3) | 25 (25/0) | Another set of postions on this difficult topic. | 2023-12-04 | 2024-11-17 |
| DWP | 9 € | Dirk's Which Point | 25 (25/0) | It frequently happens that you have the choice between different important points. For example, you could either make an advanced anchor or a good inner board point. Once you have mastered the positions from this deck, you should have a good idea which factors to consider. | 2022-12-04 | 2024-11-17 |

There is a very interesting Backgammon Anki project by Kanade Kubota that is approved by Mochy (so it cannot be that bad!) which contains analyzed results of all the 3rd roll positions (23.331 positions). As a bonus it also contains a 3rd Roll chart sheet with the analyzed results of the entire 3rd roll positions. If you are a serious student of the game you should definitely check out Kanade Kubota's website. There is also a free trial version available for download! Important note from Rainer Birkle: This is not my own project, I am not financially involved and cannot offer any support. Please always contact Kanade Kubota directly via e-mail (kuboch.sw@gmail.com). |

You can use the XG2Anki service to get a personal Anki deck created from your XG match and/or position files!
Individual decks by default do not include match score matrixes!
This is a very straightforward way: you create an XG position file for each Anki card you want to get created. You can even add comments in XG, which are then transferred to the Anki card (plain text, without formatting). Make sure that you are already analyzing the position on the level that should later appear on the Anki card (XG++ or rollouts are recommended).
It is also possible to automatically add comparable positions to an Anki card by naming the XG position files according a specific naming convention, here is an example:
You can also send complete matches and set the following thresholds (milli point limits):
As an alternative (or addition) to defining the three thresholds cards can get created for flagged positions or positions that contain a comment.
You can even define that a position gets ignored (so that no Anki card will get created for this position) by adding the text NoAnki somewhere in the comment field. This may be useful for oversights or repeating errors!
Make sure that you are always the player on the bottom and that you are already analyzing the match on the level that should later appear on the Anki card (XG++ or rollouts are recommended).
Just select one of the packages below and send me the money via PayPal to rainer@xg2anki.de or via Revolut to revolut.me/xg2anki and put the code of your package together with your e-mail address in the comment field of your payment.
You can then send XG position/match files until your Anki credits have been used up. You will normally receive your new deck within a few days. If there is a lot going on at a particular time, it can take a little longer.
Basic Card = 1 Anki Credit / DeLuxe Card = 2 Anki Credits
Pro Tip: If you play matches regularly, the DeLuxe version is highly recommended. If you are hesitating because of the higher price, you should consider buying fewer DeLuxe cards rather than a larger number of Basic cards!
Since the creation of match score matrixes is quite time-consuming, it is hardly practical and/or too expensive for individual decks. For all those who are still interested, here are the match score matrix surcharges:
| Code | Price | Title | Price per Anki Credit |
|---|---|---|---|
| ID50 | 20 € | 50 Anki Credits Package | 40 ¢ |
| ID100 | 35 € | 100 Anki Credits Package | 35 ¢ |
| ID200 | 60 € | 200 Anki Credits Package | 30 ¢ |
| ID500 | 125 € | 500 Anki Credits Package | 25 ¢ |
| ID1000 | 200 € | 1000 Anki Credits Package | 20 ¢ |
You can influence the way each deck works via the following parameters, which you can specify in square brackets at the end of the deck name (by renaming your deck):
If you want to change the behavior of all cards of the same note type (for all XG2Anki decks), you can do so by renaming the note type in the same way (-> Tools -> Manage Note Types -> Select the entry “Backgammon Position” -> Rename).
Important: As soon as you have set deck parameters by renaming the note type, all deck parameters set by renaming a deck will have no effect anymore!

| b | display match score as absolute AND relative (instead of just relative) |

| l | immediately show large XG result graphics (instead of via clicking/tapping on the graphics) |
| m | hide money game info |
| n | show names of the players below the position diagram |
| p | turn on pipcount trainer |

| Znn | zoom comparable situation (e.g. "Z50" = shrink comparable situation to 50% of the screen width) |
You can set several parameters by separating them with a semicolon.
Examples:
My Deck Name [p]
My Deck Name [p;c]

If you still have issues/questions after reading the following FAQ section, you can contact Rainer by e-mail (rainer@xg2anki.de) or Facebook.
By default Anki offers you 20 new cards per deck every day. The easiest way to check how many cards a deck contains is this:
Please do never import an Anki deck directly on your mobile device! Instead please always import the Anki deck via your Anki desktop application and then transfer the deck to your mobile device via Anki synchronization!

If images are still missing after Anki synchronization you should repeat the synchronization later (most likely the image upload from your desktop has not been completed yet)!
It's very important that you wait until the syncronization has really finished on your desktop device before you start the syncronization on your mobile device.
Make sure that the animated round arrow icon has disappeared before you start the syncronization on another device!
And also take care that the animation below the round arrow syncronization icon has disappeared before you open any cards!
Please make sure that you use the following settings when importing a deck:
If the issue remains, please delete the deck and import the deck again.
Anki allows you to easily move cards from one deck to another. Select all cards from a deck in the browse window by clicking on the first card and shift clicking on the last card, then open the context menu with a right click and click on Change Deck... and in the upcoming dialog you select the target deck and click on Move Cards.
Alternatively you can move the cards to a new deck by clicking on Add instead of on Move Cards. Just enter the name of the new deck and press OK.
