Jersey Jim Pasko played at the legendary Mayfair Club in Manhattan in the 1970s. He worked out regularly at the gym, ate a nutritious diet and was obviously in top physical condition.

Jim told me he once played 120 hours of backgammon at the Mayfair. I asked him how he felt at the end of the session and he told me he went to the gym and worked out.

In 1983 I played a 36-hour session with Doug Roberts, but neither of us could do that now.
