In Response To: The Holy Grail Of Backgammon? (Christian Munk-Christensen)

If you limit it to two tournaments that's a whole hell of a lot more doable than three. Someone dominating tournaments in the pre bot (or early bot) era has little to do with the bg tournament scene now I think.

I wonder what someone like Mochy, Falafel or Lars Trabolt would think about the odds of doing it

I think Lars has won Nordic and MC, Mochy has never won Nordic nor has Falafel, and Vegas I'm too lazy to look up but think that Falafel and Mochy have won it though I couldn't tell you offhand if it was the beginning of the year Vegas or November Vegas. So of the people you mentioned nobody has done it in their entire career nevertheless one year. Same year = pipe dream.

If you don't think it's a pipe dream I'd be happy to give odds, you pay up front, and if it happens I'll pay up. The only Vegas I would count would be the November event.
