backgamon Rules - Beavers
A common rule allows beavers - the right for a player to immediately redouble when offered the doubling cube, while retaining the cube instead of giving it back up. (The redouble must be called before the originally doubling player rolls the dice.) In this way, the stakes of the game can rise dramatically.
Beavers are commonly allowed when backgamon is played for money game by game, and usually not allowed in matches.
