Hi all.

You may know I provided commentary on a few matches at Novi this summer for Voice of Backgammon. I enjoyed the experience and decided to continue doing this on my own channel. (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCIg...KFq9Ifg/videos

Only a couple videos so far, but I intend on making this a regular activity. I have effectively been banned from the local backgammon scene (like Frank and Dmitriy before me) so this is my attempt to stay active and connected.

Let me know what you think and enjoy.

Bill

That was my question as well. And what was the local club from which you were banned? Inquiring minds want to know.

Chouettes, not tournaments.

I enjoyed our local small stakes chouettes (ones - fives) for a decade before gradually being forced out over the past few years. Perceived as being too good / winning too much.

Best of all possible reasons I suppose, but still sounds rotten.

Thanks for the videos, will take a peek over the w/e.

Thank you for the videos. I guess it is time for you to switch to higher stakes if small stakes are unavailable anymore.

Hi (Big Money) Bill,

After watching several of your videos, want to thank you for your channel and the time you put into the videos. You are a fine player and hearing your thoughts otb and after you see the analysis is very helpful.

Nobody banned me. At one point, I realized I am not welcomed and stopped going to those places. I don't need all that drama over a few bucks.
