Knocking on Heaven’s door

The post entitled “Heaven’s New Policy” prompts me to relate a personal experience.
Not having felt well for some time, I finally decided to visit the doctor. After a thorough examination and a barrage of searching questions, the doctor stated that I would have to cut out all my vices and anything that was in any way exciting. Noticing my obvious reluctance, the doctor decided to use shock tactics. He warned me that I would be knocking on Heaven’s gate within the year if I didn’t follow his strict regimen. Thus, no more fine wines, no more southern fried chicken, no more tobacco, no more late-night activities and no more GC. As if that weren’t enough, I would also have to drink water every day, eat soya and take regular exercise. I asked the doctor if this was sure to extend the number of years left to me. He replied: “Not really, but I can guarantee that it will make the rest of your life seem an eternity.”
C’est la guerre!
 SO FUNNY!!!!

At GameColony.com you can play games of skill only -- play for free or play for $prizes!.
According to the statutes of most states in the United States, gambling is defined as: "risking something of value upon the outcome of a contest of chance". (Also see No Gambling!). The skill (as opposed to chance) is predominant in games of skill. Playing games of skill for $prizes, therefore, has nothing to do with gambling as it is not a contest of chance -- the more skillful player will win far more often. The chance element of a 'gamble' is either insignificant or missing. When players compete in tournaments or games of skill for $prizes -- it is "competitive entertainment" rather then "gambling". The more skilled winner will always win more matches, tournaments and $prizes.
