Net birdie is pretty good, all things considered.

The main difference between poker and backgammon in this case is that you are playing against, say, 10 other players instead of just one. If you're not world class, you can't always expect to be the best player at the table. But you can still wind a sizable chunk of money from fish (similar to a chou, but with a lot more fish).

Suppose there are three players at the table: a good player, a bad one, and one intermediate. Suppose all three have a bankroll of $50K. The good one buys in for $50K in chips (generally, there would be buy-in limits), the bad one buys in for $500 in chips, and the intermediate is faced with a choice of how much to buy in for. If the intermediate buys in for more than $500 he's cutting his win rate.
