Message: [QUOTE="smknginmaine, post: 4948607, member: 348643"] I play both. Chess is harder to crack the top. I've played $100+ sit-n-go's with some really big poker names at the table. And, occasionally, won. Any of the the top Chess player beat me 1000 times in 1000. There is no Chris Moneymaker of Chess. There never will be. I prefer playing poker. I love the game. It's fun. I respect the game of Chess. It's apples and oranges though. What's more is important, air or water? .....and, I don't think either game is a sport. This "mental sport" bs. A phrase clearly coined by someone who could never throw a baseball or shoot a basket. It takes slightly more athletic ability to take a really big dump than to play poker or chess. [/QUOTE]
