Make sure you check out the avatar experience.

The main problem with the player traffic at Backgammon Masters is that new players are forced to play among the new players section, then after a number of games, are forced to play stakes of a minimum $2.50 per game in the intermediate section. This formula often scares the new players from continuing on much further in their backgammon learning as the level they are forced to play is out of their normal comfort zone. Although there are some swing tournaments and sit and go's running, the marjority of the players are playing individual cash games and series.

Daily freerolls are appreciated by the tournament players, along with the availability of sit an go's and turbo tournaments. Big money marathon tournaments are available adding the culmulative effect of your winning nights to pay out huge. There is a lack of multi-player ladder tournaments at backgammon masters and players looking for large fields to beat should look elsewhere for now.
