What About Sassangammon?

It was interesting, and it is hard to learn over the board. I found out quickly that 3 point boards are as powerful as 4 point boards in regular backgammon. 5 point boards are like closed boards. So don't get hit. However, it is not so easy to hit a shot either. So you can aggressively slot points.

Anyway, it was an interesting variant which unfortunately I spent my one game that I played on the roof the whole time.

It did not interfere with other events in any way since it was only 1-pointers.

Interestingly, some Sassangammon action developed after hours in the bar which attracted a bit of a crowd.
