娱乐性解释：
To dream of playing backgammon, denotes that you will, while visiting, meet with unfriendly hospitality, but will unconsciously win friendships which will endure much straining. If you are defeated in the game, you will be unfortunate in bestowing your affections, and your affairs will remain in an unsettled condition.
