I plan on making this a permanent attachment along the right side of this page; but for now, a simple list of a few of my favorite backgammon- related sites:
The United States Backgammon League:
http://www.usbackgammon.org/
A startup of Eric Barr and Kathleen Davis, in an attempt to draw more people to this fascinating game by organizing no-cost tournaments and leagues around the United States. Look for the Chestnut Hill (PA) Backgammon Club to be included in the organization list in the Summer of 2008.
Backgammon.org:
http://www.backgammon.org/
A site dedicated to monthly articles and a live forum. I've posted on here frequently under the moniker "LuvChild". The most prominent poster on this site is a gentlemen by the name of Phil Simborg. An excellent player and teacher who is also a member of...
Chicago Bar Point:
http://www.chicagopoint.com/
The Chicago Bar Point Backgammon Club. A great resource for all things backgammon and the model by which I will hopefully develop the CHBC.
Play 65.com:
www.play65.com
One of the few pay-for-play sites out there. I haven't used it much lately (finances being what they are I've stuck with yahoo msnZone and FIBS lately) but have found it a rather well-organized site for anyone looking for some semi-serious play.
Blot Blog:
http://www.blotblog.com/
Maybe my favorite- A German-based site with some excellent articles and reference positions. In the coming months look for something similar to be included as a sub-topic here as well.
GammonLife:
http://www.gammonlife.com/
The premier online backgammon magazine; with news, articles and tournament results. A really excellent site.
If anyone knows of any others that are really good I'd love to hear about them too.
Sharing is good.
