Re: BAckgammon Games
Try GameColony.com, not quite as nice but its a little less infested with sharks. Truemoneygames.com and GammonEmpire.com are also options but I havent played as much at those two.

Re: BAckgammon Games
What limit do you want play? Do you use snowie, GNU, jelly fish ? I would say relative easy games gamecolony and Gammonempire, neutral truemioneygames, tough games gamesgrid. But i should tell you that sometimes you have extreme good players for 3$ matches and that nearly any good backgammonplayer is starting to play poker.....more and easier money..........but backgammon is the better game.

Re: BAckgammon Games
Online backgammon is rigged!!!! Just Kidding
I lost $100 at Gammonempire today. Anyways, soes anyone have any info on GammonEmpire? The reason I'm asking is because of a possible glitch in their software. Heres the scenerio. I lost against a player 3 times in questionable circumstances. In these game he won when the following happened: down to our final few buttons (I don't know what they are called so I'm calling them buttons) and he has 3 or 4 left and I have 2. I will win unless he rolls doubles. So what happens? 3 times he used the doublng cube to double the stakes before his final roll. If he does not roll doubles I win. IF he rolls doubles I lose. Every time he did this he rolled doubles and I lost. Now I would not be thinking to much of it as it's possible to roll doubles however, why would someone double the stakes when the odds are aginst them in a large way? Anyways I smelled a rat after the 3rd time left, and played in a tourney. I make it to the final round in this tourney and guess what happens? 1st game of the finals and the same thing happens again. Opponent uses the doubling cube to double the match when it is clear if he does not roll doubles he has lost. I asked him about this and he said it's a glutch in the software. I e-mailed support about it but they have not e-mailed me back yet. Anyone know if this is a glitch or am I just being messed with? |

Before plunking more money down on the game, I'd ask what your average error rate is according to GNU Backgammon or Snowie. Albert |

Re: BAckgammon Games
The problem is that they have a rating, if you are good and over 1900 points no fish play you. And if you play your rating " down" gammon empire make trouble.
