One of my trivial addictions is the game of Backgammon on my old "smart" phone.

The other day I beat the computer in a rather unique fashion:





I have never seen me or the opponent with all the 15 pieces on the 6 spot before.'


It was a great day in Dayton.

Backgammon is for poor people.

I love backgammon. I've never seen all 15 on the 6 before. It's a good game of strategy and a lot of poker pros our former backgammon pros.

I was once the victim of the incredibly rare bar backgammon back in college ..... have never seen it occur before or since.

Backgammon's awesome, haven't played in a long time because I like playing in person.

I enjoy the game as well. Been a long time for me too, one of the few games my dad would play when I was a kid. His set is still laying around the house somewhere.

Over at the shark tank guys play backgammon for money. Two guys were playing double or nothing..eventually one guy got down 38000...they ended up settling for 15000$ and to my surprise the guy paid up a few weeks later

Not a gambler myself but if I was I would bet pretty good money that I would demolish anyone on this board in a friendly Shesh-Besh match.

I was bar backgammoned once in college - incredibly rare; have not seen it happen again in decades. That being said, I could easily trounce anyone on here.
