Hah! I was honestly thinking of you when we were talking because you always have your tournament calendar announcements. Glad to be part of the club 😉 😁
Another awesome video, and congrats on the win! Will definitely be following your progress as long as you keep posting. Cheers from south central Michigan ✌️
First off, welcome! It’s such an incredible game and so much joy to be had! Second, thanks so much! I’m glad you’ve found value in the videos. They’re sure a lot of fun to make. Cheers! 😃
Hi Simon! Thanks so much! 😀 It was a pleasure meeting you! Bri really enjoyed all the conversations she got to have with you and Simón. Great times for sure. Until the next one! Cheers! 😀
Hi Michael! Thank you very much it has certainly been a lot of fun to do. It was so great getting to meet you and April! We've been talking about the chouette none stop, haha. Thank you again for taking the time to show us newbies the way. 😃 We're both looking forward to seeing both of you again too! Cheers!
We had the best time in our Chou. I hope that you get a lot of fun, joy, and excitement in your future group games. Look forward to seeing both of you again soon!
I’m so glad y’all got to play and had a good time. Congrats on taking it down Jason. These videos are just what we need to help introduce more people to the game and encourage people who play but have never been to a tournament to come join the community. Keep it up guys
Hey Jonathan! Thank you! It was indeed a great time! Thanks for all you did to help make the tournament run smoothly! 😀 That's the plan! Glad it's showing through. 😃
You two make a fantastic team! Keep it up. Congrats again Jason on the win. Bri, I felt your pain in Chicago. Good luck in Madison to you both if you get to play. And I hope you guys have a great time at the Jamaica tourney!!!!
Hey Jason! Thanks so much! Bri has been a huge help with stepping up to shoot video! Glad she’s willing to be in the videos too haha. I don’t think we will be playing Madison (although we might) but I’ve got a couple ideas for a fun video (I hope 😅) for it. Really looking forward to Jamaica and all the content we are going to make for it! 👍🏻 Cheers to you sir! 😃
Hwy man, im from brazil. He wahe good players here, and i liked all youyr videos. You are very good filming, and pretty good playing too. Hope you keep uploading videos and adventures with backgammon. hugs
Hello! Thank you so much, I'm glad you're enjoying them! 😀 I definitely plan to keep documenting the journey! On a little bit of a break currently, but planning to get back to it very soon. Cheers! 😀
tks for the great video. What a wonderful intro for newbies like me. Would you recommend entering the Open or Intermediate category as well, just for the experience, when you are there for the Novice tournament?
Thank you! There are side events you'd be able to enter, but generally you have to pick which main event you want to enter as the Open, Intermediate and Novice divisions will all be going on at the same time. Which means you wouldn't be able to play more than one. Cheers!
Whataburger board for Whatatournament. Can't wait for my first tournament. Either the Texas Championship or Wild West Shootout in Denver is going to be my 1st. Those two are the closest to me.
Hah! I see what you did there! 👍🏻 I’ve heard great things about both of those, Chris! I’m excited to attend those at some point as well. Good luck if you make it to either! Cheers! 😃
Yeah, the costs of tournaments add up fast. They’re definitely worth checking out if you can make it happen! Otherwise, finding a club near you might be a great idea. Many clubs do smaller tournaments and might be right up your alley. The club near me was $6 to enter and was a lot of fun! Cheers! 😃
Hey Jesús! Great meeting you as well! Thanks for saying hello. 😀 Hopefully we can get some playing in at the next one. Thanks for watching and cheers! 😃
Hi Eric! Likewise! 😃 We're both looking forward to many more chats. I randomly found myself on Zdenek's Monte Carlo vlog and saw you played doubles with him last year. I was immediately like, "It's ERIC!" Until the next one! Cheers! 😃
@@blunderblots I’ll introduce you to him. You haven’t scratched the surface meeting amazing people in BG. So glad to have you coming out to tourneys. I’ve been doing this for 7-8 years now and I still meet new wonderful people at tourneys-some new like you, some have played for years. I’m so glad I found BG. I didn’t video it like you have, but my entry into BG was similar to yours. It’s a great social experience and always fun.
Thanks for sharing. My father in law got me into the game a few years ago and I absolutely love playing. I have always thought about playing in a tournament, but I've never built up the nerve to go. After seeing this, and seeing how much fun you had I'm planning to check out the tournament in Chicago next year. I wish you success with the channel, and the best of luck in your backgammon journey 🙂
Hello! It's such a fantastic game and there's so many great and welcoming people in the community. That's SO cool to hear you're planning on attending next year! Thanks for sharing 😁 I'm planning on going as well, so definitely say hello. Thanks for the kind words and good luck to you in your games as well! If you have any questions about tournaments, just let me know. Cheers! 😀
