Guess the PRPlay

About

Guess the PR is a small game for backgammon players: watch one game from a real match and guess how well each player played.

Every game comes from a rated match between two people, analysed move by move by a bot. The answer is each player's PR, the standard measure of backgammon skill. It is harder than it looks: one game is a small sample, and the difference between a Master and an Intermediate often hides in a few quiet moves.
