Back Game Quiz, Seminar in Chicago, Memorial Day 2013

Posted By: Paul Weaver <bgopenings@aol.com>
Date: Monday, 23 December 2013, at 5:52 a.m.

After Rory invited me to give the seminar in Chicago, I had about six months to prepare. I saved about 400 back game checker play positions and tried to choose the ten most difficult. If you want another challenge, then for each of the ten positions below, put the cube in the center and decide on the cube action before the roll. Give yourself six minutes.

All are money games with Jacoby, except #4, which is DMP.

Matt got 9 right and had the highest score. Mochy took second place with 6. Matt missed #2. Mochy was the only one who got #2 right.
