If you set the standard of like really welcoming and loving and fun, it sells itself.

There's definitely people that come to my club being like, you know, I've only been playing on the computer or on my phone and I'm a little nervous.

I'm like, don't even worry.

We're all nice here.

There is this world of playing online and then trying to get into tournaments.

And it's so different.

In tournaments, sometimes the rooms are absolutely ice cold.

Sometimes they're so hot.

There's so much stimulation.

There's smelly people.

There's like just so much crazy going on and the stamina of just sitting there and focusing game after game.

Poker and chess are so much bigger than Backgammon.

They want to get Backgammon as mainstream.

Backgammon is just way more social game.

You play with one hand and there's a drink in your other hand.

Like, that's the game.

I'm going to have a tournament at MSG.

I've been talking about this forever.

I've been putting it on my dream journal or a manifestation board, whatever it is.

I don't know how long that will take, but we're going to do it.
