Playing Backgammon on Play65™ is
exactly the same as in real life, only you get to meet exciting
people from all over the world and play against them for Real Money.
Before playing Backgammon for Real money, you must deposit money
into your account.
There are two ways to start playing for Real money after depositing
money; joining an existing table or creating a new table. In both
ways, there is a stake involved in the game and the winner takes
everything and pays a small fee.
When playing a live match, there are
two types of game modes:
Series Mode (Match Play) - A series of games between two players
that ends when one player wins by accumulating the agreed and set
number of points. For each game, the number of points won is the
doubling cube value multiplied by the win type (winning by a gammon
is worth 2 points, winning by a backgammon is worth 3 points).
Single Mode (Money Game) - The normal style of competition in which
games are played independently. For each game, the loser pays the
winner the agreed initial stake multiplied by the value of the
doubling cube and further multiplied by the win type (two for a
gammon or three for a backgammon).
There are two types of timers when
playing Backgammon in Play65™:
Move Timer - this timer displays the time you have left to make a
move. It is reset after each move. If this timer expires, the global
timer will start ticking.
Global Timer - this timer starts ticking only when the move timer
expires. The global timer is set for the entire game.
Single Game (Money)
Commission is taken from the final win sum (the winner pays for both
players)
Up to $20: 4.9%
Example: Joe and Alex play a single game with initial stake of $5.
Alex wins by gammon. $9.02 will be added to Alex's balance and Joe's
balance will have $10 deducted (commission is $0.49).
$20 up to $100: 3.9%
Over $100: 2.9%
Series Game (Match)
Commission is taken from the stake sum plus 0.5% for each additional
point in a game over 1 (the winner pays both).
Up to $20:
base commission (for 1 point): 4.9%, every point: +0.5%, max
commission: 9.9%
Example: Diane and Julia play a Series (match) up to 3 points with
stake of $10. Diane wins the series 3-1.The commission for 3 points
is a base commission of 4.9%+2*0.5%=5.9% The commission from each
player is $10*5.9%= $0.59 (the winner pays both their
commissions).$8.82will be added to Diane's balance and Julia's
balance will be deducted $10.
$20 up to $100:
base commission (for 1 point): 4.4%, every point: +0.5%, max
commission: 8.9%
$100 and over:
base commission (for 1 point): 3.9%, every point: +0.5%, max
commission: 7.9%
We encourage matches between 2 players with a similar rating
level, therefore:
A maximum $5 commission when both rating of the players are over
1650.
Decrease of 50% in commissions if the rating of both players are
over 1700.
Increase of 15% in commissions if the rating of one of the players
is less than 1600.
And:
Increase of 50% in commissions when the rating difference is 100 to
199.
Increase of 100% in commissions when the rating difference is 200 or
more.
Increase of 150% in commissions when the rating difference is 250 or
more.
Increase of 200% in commissions when the rating difference is 300 or
more.
The following rules apply:
-Increased commission will not be applied if both players have a
rating higher than 1650 or less than 1550.
-A rating lower than 1400 is considered as 1400 and displayed as
1400*.
