- pseudoprime — A backgammon prime (six consecutive occupied points) with one point missing.

A number that passes this test is called a pseudoprime. The hacker backgammon usage stems from the idea that a pseudoprime is almost as good as a prime: it does the job of a prime until proven otherwise, and that probably won't happen.
