Last Sunday, Masayuki “Mochy” Mochizuki (Giants #1 2015-2016) presented our 6th “Backgammon Proficiency Test” during the 36th Chicago Open Backgammon Tournament. That was the third consecutive time for us to conduct our test there.

It was a great success this year too, and no less than 30 players participated in it. We are very glad to have so many players there every year.
According to the result, Dennis Culpepper and Mr. X tied for first with top scores of 35 out of 50 correct answers.
All of their scores are as below, and a list of overall results of our 6th test up to now is here.
