Cheers for the link so we can play. All I need to know now is how to stop playing.

Looks fun. Tom made at least 3 bad moves (imo) which surprised me. I just assumed someone as bright as him would be very good at game like this. Then again, i've played a shit ton of Backgammon. Maybe Tom hasn't played games like this before.
