2010 Leuven Open Backgammon: final

[@osirissalgado6689]

Backgammon, one awsome board game.

[@thebackgammontube]

Osiris Salgado I think so😍

[@emilijajazic5597]

I love how the grandpa thinks slow, but makes smart moves ✊👊😂

[@thebackgammontube]

Emilija Jazić I love it😍

[@pdwu2b]

Henri, the player on the left, had less than 20% probability of winning the game at that point. He was right to pass. This is based on a computer analysis which uses heuristics, so feel free to disagree.

[@Hoil007]

What 4:44 mean?

[@مصعبوليد-ح6م]

Continuation with double the prize or withdrawal

[@ohgodpleasehelpme4337]

Player 2 is so confident that they will win that they're willing to bet 2 points for the round If Player 1 accept the bet, they will put the doubling cube by their side and whoever wins the round will win 2 points If Player 1 refuse the bet, Player 2 instantly win the round with 1 point ( the value of the bet dividen by 2) Third option, Player 1 can raise the bet to 4 (then 8, then 16 etc..), now the decision is on Player 2 to accept the counter bet or not.

Backgammon is absolutely cool

What would you have played? And why?

what does the bin one mean?

ليش ماكملو الكيم رجعو من جديد

[@abbashazem8284]

اذا تعرف كلي

[@xelle1649]

I was pretty mesmerized by the timer

[@leonardo91681]

He's offering to double the stakes of the game. The player on the left refused both times so the player on the right instantly wins.

[@chrisknowlton2865]

Can they offer to double at any point? It would seem unfair to try and double it in the late game.

[@alexanderoiling]

@@chrisknowlton2865 One is always allowed to double before rolling the dice at the start of the turn.

[@rickl.461]

@@chrisknowlton2865 late doubles are allowed to speed up play---players behind are likely to accept the loss for one point rather than two, and the doubling cube allows a player ahead to avoid a bad beat, possibly preventing them for playing for a gammon, so quicker games.

[@ralphdaher6219]

I play with my dad backgammon but their is no red dice what does it mean

[@TheRealLeewon]

Doubling cube

[@aargf]

ممكن احد يفهمني ليش مايكملون لكيم

بس اريد اعرف شنو سالفت الزار الجبير

[@abcd6323]

حبي هذا لعب رهن الزار الجبير يقصد بي انو تتنازل عن الكيم اوين لو الرهن يصير في اثنين المقابل اتنازل فهمت؟؟؟

[@timngu]

What does it mean when that right guy suddenly sets the big dice on the board? Is her fortefeiing?

[@LatePerkele]

Doubling, and the other dude forfit after that

[@tfries72]

@@LatePerkele What does doubling mean? How does it work and why does he forfeit?? What is the point of doubling?

[@gavinr]

@@tfries72 The doubling cube doubles the points so instead of winning 1 game it would be 2 games and the 4, 8 etc. You normally offer the double when you are at an advantage but try and do it so the opponent may take it and so boost your score - if you win.

[@matt4477]

where is the rest of the match ?

[@pdwu2b]

Not on KZbin I'm afraid. At that time KZbin wouldn't let me upload more than 10 minutes. You can see complete matches of later tournaments on my channel.

This is one of the weirdest chess table I have ever seen.

[@franz3424]

No entiendo...acaso no se gana el juego cuando retiras todas tus fichas..del tablero..?? Que alguien me explique...

[@sergiobidal3663]

Asi es . Gana quien saque todas las fichas, pero aca estan jugan por puntos, el jugador de la derecha le dobla la apuestade puntos por que esta mejor posicionado, el de la isquierda rechasa doblar, y entonces termina con un punto el de la derecha. No se a cuantos puntos estan jugando esta final... 5, 9 ,11 etc.

[@zseriu]

I don't agree with red's 3-3 (in the first game) black's 5-3 and red's 4-2 (in the second game)

[@ThePeterDislikeShow]

I'm surprised the player on the left folded on the first round; it looked just a little imbalanced when the double was offered.

[@ptrickie]

Pip count is 96 to 115 with the 2 checkers behind a prime.

[@gavinr]

@@ptrickie You are right - he was too far behind and only doubles woud have saved him

[@zseriu]

I would have played 19/22(2)* , 2/5(2) for 3-3 13/5 for 5-3 bar/4 , 2/4 for 4-2 I can't give detailed reasons. I just find these plays more solid than actual plays. You have to let a program calculate the equities to find out if I'm right.

[@usssr1917]

Min 8.06 when he played that 1 inside the base instead of covering the 6 literally make me puke. Im 18 and i brush my teeth with these players

[@gavinr]

You are wrong young one - the 'golden point' should always be covered above all else

[@konstantint8630]

В средней азии так не играют. Правила под себя переделали.

[@ilhamikarakoc6545]

Ben bunu bil miyorum

[@bugisami]

A 23-point anchor is almost always utterly useless, should only be made in an emergency and abandoned ASAP.

[@bulgiriri]

so watch chess videos...

[@uzunesheg5821]

This game is possibly the most dull game ever. Whats up with the dice thrower and the slow process. They are really bad...

[@polygamous1]

look No miracle rolls at a crucial time like Yahoo backgammon? I wish there was ONE FEE PAYING SIDE not depending on numbers to make their advertising money so we could get Real random rolls sadly its Not
