In Response To: The Little Rules Matter (Jason Lee)

One of the current rules of USA tournament backgammon is not at all well thought out. One of these currect rules of backgammon is logically impossible to observe, at times.

I will explain this in detail in my interview with Phil Simborg, which will not appear until after the royal wedding.

In the meantime, read the rules and see if you can figure it out.
