then, in the centuries that followed, it brought together peoples across the Mediterranean.\n\nPhoenicians, Greeks and Romans played it regularly, calling it by different names and following different rules, but always giving this game an additional transcendent meaning as a metaphor of human life, which is related to skill as well as to fate.\n\nIt thrived through the Middle Ages, and finally reached modern times with major adjustments coming especially from the English-speaking world, that have made it more complex: its random and gambling characteristics have remained, however, which makes it terribly engaging.\n\nIn the past thirty years, the game has been revolutionised from the technical and strategic points of view, also thanks to the introduction of software data analysis.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-319306c elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default qodef-elementor-content-no\" data-id=\"319306c\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-2b84670\" data-id=\"2b84670\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7b4a921 elementor-widget elementor-widget-qi_addons_for_elementor_image_gallery_masonry\" data-id=\"7b4a921\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"qi_addons_for_elementor_image_gallery_masonry.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"qodef-shortcode qodef-m qodef-qi-image-gallery-masonry qodef-image--hover-zoom qodef-qi-grid qodef-layout--qi-masonry qodef-items--fixed qodef-col-num--1 qodef-responsive--predefined\">\n\t<div class=\"qodef-grid-inner\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"qodef-qi-grid-masonry-sizer\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"qodef-e qodef-image-wrapper qodef-grid-item qodef-item--landscape\">\n\t<div class=\"qodef-e-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1300\" height=\"650\" src=\"https:\/\/www.anticotiroavolo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/backgammon2-1300x650.jpg\" class=\"attachment-qi_addons_for_elementor_image_size_landscape size-qi_addons_for_elementor_image_size_landscape\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Every year in September our Club organises an international backgammon tournament, which attracts players from all over the world due to the high level of participants, but also to the beautiful location and the excellent cuisine, that has won the hearts of Italians and foreigners alike.
