Another of Lewis Deyong's high-end backgammon events featuring a black-tie dinner. The $25,000 in added prize money provided by Black & White Whisky essentially provides the charitable contribution to the the Boston Symphony Orchestra -- player entry fees went directly to the charity, not to the prize pool, with the added money providing a cash pot commensurate with those donations (presuming a full slate of players). The tournament was won by New Yorker Leslie Stone.
