GamesGridThe online backgammon room GamesGrid is inactive since March 15, 2008. The backgammon site was purchased by the online gaming portal GameAccount, which, according to the GamesGrid's former management announcement, will soon open a new backgammon room in its place. Once the new backgammon site will be online, members of the old and currently closed GamesGrid players will be able to log in to the new site with the same username and password.
Gamesgrid offers money play in backgammon. At gamesgrid, you can choose to play however you like.
The gamesgrid backgammon software is free to download. All you have to do is apply through the gamesgrid website. The site monitors your play, so if you miss several weeks, you may be removed from the program.
During the game, you can chat with other players or your opponent and comment on the game as it progresses. Since the games grid website is pretty young, it is possible for players to suggest upgrades to the software.
The action at gamesgrid never stops, and new players always log on. Each week, gamesgrid announces a showcase game and stakes. Every player can join the tournaments and win gamesgrid bonuses. The gamesgrid site presents frequently asked questions page and provides technical support so that you can contact them with any problem you might have through e-mail. Bonuses and promotions are where gamesgrid backgammon gets juicy. The site is offering a 1000% bonus up to $5000 on your initial deposit, which you can withdraw at any time. The gamesgrid bonuses are earned on a points system.
The players at gamesgrid backgammon enjoy the ease of game, ease of making money and the good experience of other players. There is no doubt that if you like to play backgammon and earn money without working so much, gamesgrid backgammon gives you a great opportunity. Think about how exciting and enjoyable it is to play backgammon in reality, and now think how great it is to play backgammon for money with people from all over the world on your computer. GamesGrid is mainly a website for online poker games, yet it also offers backgammon games. There are 76,000 online players in this website. The software is easy to install, but nicknames must be validated via an email account before playing. There is a possibility to pay for a membership subscription, which allows certain benefits, such as playing unlimited matches, uploading one's picture, or participating in members-only tournaments. The price for a membership subscription lies between a minimum of 79.95$ for a single year, to a maximum of 500$ for a lifetime subscription.
The graphics both for the game and for the website itself are pleasant, elegant and minimal. It is possible to watch a backgammon game, or participate in a game, either just for fun or for money. One can take part in a chat while playing. The chat option is simple and easy to use. Chatting makes the game feel much more personal, and allows getting to know other players. One can speak both with the opponent and with those who are watching the game. The chat option is available in various languages, including Hebrew. It is also possible to play for small stakes against the computer. The computer plays in different levels. These non-human opponents are called "money robots".
The GamesGrid website offers responsible wagering precautions, including explanations about the dangers of gambling and a self-test. This is rather unusual for websites that offer online gambling. I find this very decent towards the users of the site. The following terms relate to poker, and I suppose this may apply for the backgammon games in the GamesGrid website as well:
Tournaments are optional, including Intermediate tournaments and 25$ tournaments.
