In Response To: GRANDMASTER TITLE AWARDED TO ZDENĚK ŽIŽKA (Rick Janowski)

It is great news to hear this story about a young serious backgammon player from the Czech Republic. If you look around at the average age of backgammon participants at US tournaments, it appears the average player is about as old as Hillary, Bernie and Donald. We need new young players.

I met and played several practice matches against his lovely mother Eva when I was in Prague for Chiva's tournament in December 2012, but I had no idea at the time she had a son so very talented in backgammon.

Thanks to Rick for sharing this story. Do you know his GamesGrid nickname?
