of chance/luck and the uniqueness of each game. Nice conversational gambit on your part, Jack. Where have you been?

Only the few masterpieces from the skilled hands of masters equal art.

The rest, if we're realistic, reflects varying degrees of entertaining crap.

No. The greatest game ever is Spin The Bottle. Chess is 2nd.

Ok I'll admit chess is first, but Guitar Hero is a close second.

How about hide the bone? How about stink finger? And don't forget pocket pool. And now that I have answered your profound question.......why did you choose a chess site to ask your question? Why not ask a bunch of bridge players. Or perhaps some gambleaholics? Surely you can think of something to say that would getthe attention of the boredom police...........Look at me.......I like to use an excess of periods. Now thats fun. Nobody can guess how many I'll use the next time. Oh......what a great game this is......
