Is your game plateauing?
You’ve read the books, you know the opening moves, and you play regularly—but the gap between you and the world’s elite still feels like a canyon.
In backgammon, the difference between a “good player” and a “World Champion” isn’t luck; it’s Decision Science. It’s the ability to filter through the noise of the dice and apply a systematic, analytical framework to every checker play and cube decision.
Join 2-time World Champion Frank Frigo for a deep dive into the mechanics of winning. Frank won’t just show you “the right move”—he will teach you the science of how to find it.
What You’ll Discover:
The Framework of Decision Science: Learn how to apply probabilistic thinking and risk management to the board, turning “gut feelings” into calculated wins.
The Anatomy of an Error: Frank breaks down how top-tier players identify their own cognitive biases and systematic weaknesses.
Building Your PR Development Plan: Stop practicing aimlessly. Learn how to create a structured, data-driven roadmap to lower your PR (Performance Rating) and track your growth.
Elite Study Habits: A behind-the-curtain look at how a World Champion uses modern technology and theory to stay at the top of the world elite.
