[@aleksander_krumov]

[@habibnsouro]

U suck

[@habibnsouro]

🤪🤪

[@JoaoPaulo-cy1cg]

What is this board? Is the dice tower part/integrated with it?

[@uschurch]

I think it's a p 40 board.

[@timsullivan4566]

great content but unfortunately the board/checkers did a number on my eyes...

[@derlambach3407]

I noticed, that Michy never plays a forced move (i.g. only one possible way to enter from the bar) but calculates all the variations in his head. To me, this makes no sense - is there a (psychological!?) explanation?

[@uschurch]

He may have been counting the race

[@jugganuat6440]

Why do you guys set the board that way

[@aleksander_krumov]

Which way?

[@xchalibur77]

The other way😂

[@tuber4tuber]

Why does doubling take so long? Either Accept or Decline.

[@teodelfuego]

they are probably counting pips and analyzing best and worst case rolls.

[@PeterOzanne]

They are working out the odds, which are affected by the score and all the elements of the position - as every top backgammon player knows ;-)

[@SpotTravelers]

Love learning from pros

[@themerovingian7154]

@@oliverrietz2705 hey i have a question I downloaded the xg but i dont know why it doesn't show me the best moves. I choose the analysis mode but still it doesn't show anything. Plus when I play against xg+ engine, it plays so dumb! What's wrong with this app?

[@aleksander_krumov]

Very bad luck at 1:38:24

[@MrQmason]

Nice board.....

[@Roo986]

At 3:20 plays out, through a three prime with a double 3? Mmm

[@pascalleveille]

Roo986 Its not a 3 prime, the 18 point is empty. The bar is thin and the same color as the black arrows, so it’s easy to get confused

[@thebackgammontube]

Michy😍

[@AVMMM]

Painful to watch..

[@andersnielsen6044]

Why?

[@AVMMM]

Anders Nielsen Amateurs.. they have no grasp regarding the nature of the game.

[@teodelfuego]

@@AVMMM You're new to backgammon, aren't you? Michy is ranked number 2 in the world and has been in the top ten for about a decade.

[@machtanger]

The dice tower....am I right?

[@xchalibur77]

Indeed they are risking way too much. Less singles you leave on the board the more chances you have to win
