"It can be argued that tournament backgammon bears a great resemblance to tournament bridge, which has a similar element of randomness, variability, and chance, and in which understanding and utilization of probabilities are elements of skill integral to that game's generally (but not universally) recognized standing as a game of skill. "

Is bridge (or poker or any other skill-luck games allowed)? Then it could be argued that by precedent backgammon should be allowed.
