nikos: >>These games (Plakoto & Fevga ) do know gammons and backgammons actually. There are no Backgammons in Fevga and Plakoto. Only gammons. Definitions are the same. In both Plakoto and Fevga if and only if you haven't borne off any checkers and the opponent wins the game, then the opponent wins a gammon, that is twice the value of the game, (that is 2 points in Greece as we don't usually use doubling cube).
>> In Greece at Plakoto for example,if the mother checker is pinned, this is a gammon. As i'm trying to show wherever i play Plakoto, this is wrong and should not be used. In the vast majority of cases it is true but there are some where it isn't. I have shown why before some time with the example i gave below(or above depending on the board setup you have).
