< Earlier Kibitzing  · PAGE 218 OF 501 ·  Later Kibitzing> Dec-07-11    dakgootje: <<dakgootje> What pun?> Leg-end, legend - too obscure? Ah well, can't have everthing ;D <<dakgoot> corny but i compliment that with "lol!"> hehehe - well, it's not as if I could refrain from posting when I thought of it; it fit just too well :P Dec-07-11    technical draw: Now I get it. I saw the bookie in a movie, "My name is leg-end". (ok, corny too.) Dec-07-11    moronovich: Who cares about his leg-acy !? Worse with Usain Bolt. When he travels he allways suffer from Jetlegs. Only cure is listen to the Beatles :"Leg it Be". Dec-07-11    WannaBe: Shoot me, someone please shoot me. Put me out of my misery. Please... Dec-07-11    wordfunph: LCC 5th round tomorrow.. leg's put it on!!! Dec-07-11    dakgootje: "..and so this highly advanced society is the only one known to date - to have collapsed due to an excessive amount of terrible puns." :D Dec-07-11    SwitchingQuylthulg: <Penguincw: Is the London Chess Classic (2011) tournament going to be the last tournament for betting?> That's a legitimate question. Tata starts on January 13, and I doubt <Bookie> wants to keep this game in limbo for a month, so I'd guess we'll finish with the Women's World Team Champs.

Dec-08-11    technical draw: Picked up 300cbs this round. I have to bet bigger if I want to win a prize but I have what is known as "scared money". I have to make bigger bets but I'm afraid if I lose I'll drop out of the top ten. This is a gambler's dilemma. Dec-08-11    TheFocus: <TD> I hear ya. I am bleeding chess buckss all over the place. My picks in Winner and Quinella may not make it and I bet big there. Woe is me! Dec-08-11    Penguincw: Two things. -Why are there no Round 6 bets. -Can we do live betting tomorrow? Thanks. Dec-08-11    wordfunph: <Peng>, thanks for reminding <CGB>.. go <CGB>! Dec-09-11    moronovich: <Chess Bookie> ! Couldn´t we please have the pick-three back again !? . Dec-09-11    Penguincw: < moronovich: <Chess Bookie> ! Couldn´t we please have the pick-three back again !? . > Looks like we're having a break from that. Dec-09-11    Penguincw: Thanks for another interesting one. London Chess Classic: Rd 7: Carlsen vs Adams: First Move Dec-10-11    Penguincw: Don't forget to pay out Round 7. Dec-11-11    redribbon3700: Who is betting currently? Dec-11-11    wordfunph: 5 hours to gametime and still no paychecks from round 7 :( Dec-11-11    moulicules: Administrator: not yet pay-out? Dec-11-11    moulicules: Administrator: Don't forget to pay us!We've got 2 hrs remaining for round 8! Thanks! Dec-12-11    technical draw: If there's going to be another round then I'll need the Kramnik-Nakamura quinella. Go Hikaru! Dec-12-11    dakgootje: Ugh, would've scored big if Adams would not have thrown away the win. And completely blunder the position instead. Why am I never on the gaining-side in these cases? -- Enough of the complaining. Lets praise mister loanshark and his terrible memory instead. Dec-12-11    technical draw: Goody, I picked up the quinella and Kramnik to win. Let's see what happens in the next round. Dec-13-11    Penguincw: Is there going to be another tournament? Dec-13-11    wordfunph: <Peng> good morning.. maybe CGB's silence means YES :) Jump to page #   (enter # from 1 to 501) search thread:    < Earlier Kibitzing  · PAGE 218 OF 501 ·  Later Kibitzing>
