Milwaukee Backgammon Club: Tournament

Event time: 6:30pm, 1st, 3rd & 5th Wednesday every month

Please join us for Milwaukee's best bang for your entertainment buck. Just $6 enters you into our two-track tournament, with a Main and a Consolation Track (only for Players who lose their first match), guaranteeing you at least two 5-point matches.

We return $5 in prize money to our top three finishers (retaining $1 for club expenses). But even if you don't enter or you're not a winner, or you have to wait awhile for your next tournament match, stick around for the side games and chouettes. (For you beginners, we offer lessons, too!)

We start taking entries at 6:30. If you're going to come late (but no later than 7), please email info@mkebackgammon.org or call or text 414-467-8757, and we'll hold a spot for you.

We head over to the friendly confines of Rounding Third's back room (check in with the bartender to find us) at 6:30 every Wednesday evening — Tournaments the 1st, 3rd and 5th Wednesday; Open Play (heads-up games, multi-player chouettes, and beginner lessons) the 2nd and 4th Wednesday of every month. Even if you can't make it by 6:30, please feel free to join us anytime up to 9:30 for at least an hour's worth of play.

Rounding Third offers ample parking on Bluemound — at the curb and across the street — and along the east side of the building. Here's their menu: http://www.roundingthirdbarandgrill.com/#!menus
