Ben had some trouble with the audio on the stream but eventually got it going. The entire 1.5 hour lecture/contest will be posted on YouTube later.

I set up a game with the second player rolling 6-6 and we played it out as challenge gammon, with Stick and John taking turns and challenging each other if they disagreed with the play. I asked the audience to help us select difficult rolls to play.

It was fun and educational and I bet I learned as much as anyone. As might be expected, Stick and John tied, but I gave them both Backgammon for Losers and a $400 credit to a top Chicago restaurant (While Castle, but must be used on a single trip).
