Race Games

Charles-Henri Sabet is a Swiss backgammon player who won the World Backgammon Championship at Monte Carlo in 1985, beating Shimon Kagan of Israel in the final. He was the second Swiss winner of the event, after Jacques Michel in 1982, and the champion between Mike Svobodny in 1984 and Clement Palacci in 1986. Dale Kerr's count of winners by country through 2007 gives Switzerland two titles, and the Monte Carlo organisers list Sabet under Switzerland, although one list of world champions gives his country as Italy.
