it all depends on how good you are. I mean doing OK against Jellyfish doesn't say a lot, because you don't mention on which level you set it.
Are you familiar with doubling?
Do you know about blitz-games or back games?
Do you know about timing in prime vs. prime play?
If you have a lot of experience but some of the above things are unknown to you then i would suggest the book "501 essential backgammon problems" by Robertie.
Are you familiar with these terms then maybe your ready for the Lamford book "improve your backgammon" Advanced backgammon"from Robertie is also very thorough.
