In Response To: My comments on the position and score (neilkaz)

I'll use edit|copy in the future, thanks. So the gammon scared me. What makes this look like a 38% win?

p.s. I haven't played for years. I think in my last tournament I was so happy to be playing you, I lost all sense for the game. Just in the last few weeks my fiancee asked me to teach her how to play backgammon on the set she got from Spain. So in the process of that, I went online and noticed Nack and Weaver's book just came out. So she bought it for me for Christmas. Then I saw my name in the acknowledgments! Awesome book, eh? I think the break has done me well. I dropped out partially because I was getting addicted to luck and moving too fast and not thinking.
