 To those who may remember Grandpa Dave on Checkers, a lovely gentleman if ever there was one.  Dave passed away in October having lost his fight against Cancer.  Please spare a thought for Dave and his dear family in their time of loss.   God Bless You Dave. Rest In Peace

| Play checkers tournaments online 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.
