Suttles loses to world champions (former, curren
Compiled by lentil

My first encounter with a Suttles games collection struck me as the ultimate in humility: it opened with 6 straight losses to world champions. I collect them (and others) here, not because I wish to mock the man, but to celebrate the mere fact that he was admitted to these stratospheric circles. Me they wouldn't even let near the playing hall!
