The CD will be sent to you immediately. You may find more information about the best Backgammon program in the world below or at http://www.bgsnowie.com. Lucky rolls, Olivier Egger Johannes Levermann SnowieGroup SA Why is Snowie 4 better than Snowie 3? Strongly improved playing engine Based on a new learning technology Snowie 4 is way stronger than Snowie 3. Here are simulation results between Snowie 4 and Snowie 3 in money games: Snowie 4 1-Ply vs. Snowie 3 1-Ply: +0.039 pts/game. Snowie 4 2-Ply vs. Snowie 3 2-Ply: +0.048 pts/game. Snowie 4 3-Ply vs. Snowie 3 3-Ply: +0.033 pts/game. In addition Snowie 4 plays backgames and priming battles much better and so it can not be tricked into situations that it doesn't understand. Table Stakes Snowie 4 is capable of analyzing table stakes situations. On TrueMoneygames (http://www.truemoneygames.com) you can play backgammon for real money using table stakes. It is now possible to analyze these sessions with the new Snowie. Simplified User Interface The user interface has been simplified. Advanced options are still available but are more hidden in the application. That means that Snowie has become an easy-to-use application for everybody but stays with all the advanced options for the professional players. Improved Graphics All the graphics of the application have been redesigned. 3d boards and a new look of the application makes it more modern. Simplified registration procedure The registration procedure is a simple click for people having Internet access. There is an automatic connection to our server and the copy registers itself.
