It was good fun.
Gerd tought me the game. We played the game quickly.
After only a few games he didn't seem to stand a chance,
eventhough dice are involved. I beat the shit out of him.
Gerd was such a good loser that he called me "profi" (pro)
and now I feel guilty...

By the way, I discarded Ingo Althöfer's strategic advice
- as explained by Gerd and others - right away and played my own strategy.
