Report & Results January 24th 2008

A good night of backgammon with a turnout of nine playing a mixture of league ladder 11 point matches, our one point round robin “championship” tournament and friendly games.

Eric made it two winning weeks out of two following his debut win last week picking up three points with a backgammon winning double six with the last roll of the last game (against Phil). This pushed Ian into second place, level on points with Craig - another new player to the club.

Eric complemented his tournament win with a league ladder win against Di. Dan beat Phil in an 11 pointer to go top of the ladder.
