'''Backgammon''' was a board game at which the [[First Doctor]] was adept. In one [[13th century]] session, he won from [[Kublai Khan]]: thirty-five [[elephant]]s with ceremonial bridles, trappings, brocades and pavillions; four thousand white [[stallion]]s; twenty-five [[tiger]]s; the sacred tooth of [[Buddha]]; and the entire commerce of [[Burma]] for one year. [[Empress (Marco Polo)|Khan's wife]] disapproved of her husband's playing the game for stakes. She claimed that it aggravated his gout.
