In Response To: Backgammon is not chess! (Chiva Tafazzoli)

I would not be so sure that people want to keep the money part. I know of a number of people that would be happy to have a $50-$100 entry fee, knowing that the are almost always spending money on their hobbie, rather then making money on it if they cash. One example of this is the London Open.
