but at least you beat your family...hehehe!!! i havent played scrabble i think i know how but i dont know if im good at it...i was just the champion in playing "sungka" (dont know the english word) in our place...hahahahaha!!!

sungka is made out of wood with 16 holes where the 2 holes serve as the home of the two players and 7 holes in each side...you play it using stones or seeds then whoever got more seeds or stones win.

I get my butt kicked in sungka every time.

I have to ask the wife to slow down and take it easy so I can keep up. She can so fast it is hard to tell where she ends and picks up again and if she had stones left to keep on going.

She just laughs at me and says she is not cheating. But she said her brother is really good at cheating and if nanay catches him he will loose an ear in the retribution!

yeah you can cheat in playing sungka but your eyes should be focus on to her hands you can tell if she is cheating or not...theres a technique for that though but just make it sure she will not know it. its a fun game!
