Worst gambler ever
Ron "King Suki" King won the U.S. checkers championship in June in Medina, Ohio, claiming the $6,000 first prize by emerging from a field of 41 competitors whose intensity generally rivals that of more popular and complex games. King, the world "free style" champion, is known as the Muhammad Ali of checkers for trash-talking his opponents. Also competing was another world champion (in a form of checkers in which the first three moves are always at random), Alex "The Mad Russian" Moiseyev, who assured an Agence France-Presse reporter that, as in chess, the top players have to think 10 moves ahead.

Checkers?

And you dismissed my Bridge post? :)




just teasing
 
Does it fuck your monitor up when you spray beer on it because you're laughing?

Or does the monitor secretly like it and craves another round of froth-base laughter?
