A total of twelve backgammoners faced off tonight.
It is worth repeating the late-comer rule as, unfortunately, two players were affected by it.
At 6.30 sharp the computer shuffles the names of those present.
If the number of players is odd, the computer randomly picks a player as the bye and 100 points are awarded for the un-played first round.
Players arriving after the shuffle are considered late-comers.
They may enter the tournament at the second round but, unlike a bye, are not awarded any points.
It was good to see Ned Marootians come tonight.
We would like to see more of you, Ned.
David Layman was drawn as the Jackpot player but failed to capitalise on the opportunity.
The results for the evening were:
1st place, Gary Stavrou
2nd place, Jim Bean
3rd place, David Layman
Sorry for the lack of photos the last three weeks but our resident photographer, Carol, has been on holidays and will be back next week.
