In Response To: Fresno? (Bill Riles)

Yes, Fresno.....

The buzz around the 2009 event was loud enough to attract a casino wanting to stage the event in 2010.

We get excellent hospitality, fantastic room rates ($79/night at a max), a hotel being next building to the casino, gambling action besides backgammon(mainly poker) and a city which is easy to reach from San Fransisco, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, and which has an airport too.

For those who enjoy other things than backgammon while attending a tournament, there is wine from Central Valley and Yodemite and other places to visit.

The casino is very supportive in terms of promotion with local print press, radio and maybe TV.

This is going to be a real nice one. Mark up your calendar.....
