Backgammon 8A+ by Staลกa Gejo
Staลกa Gejo, who has done five 8A's in 2021, has done her third 8A+ during the last year, Backgammon in Frankenjura and amazingly she took it down on her second session, video.
So how was it possible to take it down in just two sessions?
Well, to be honest, I don't think 8A+ is my realistic upper limit, so I need to try something harder. Additionally, this one really suited me well.
When will you start trying 8B and 8B+?
I tried some, they feel pretty hard, but doable. I need to find something that suits me better ๐คท๐ปโโ๏ธ I have time :)

Ondra flashes 3*8C in two weeks
