Checkers used to be played here with Pepsi bottle caps as pieces on one side, and something else on the other...Coke, Singha etc. If no "others", cap top side up and bottom side up. Could never take your eyes away for fear of piece flipping. :laugh:

Rules? Standard or Thai?

It’s none of my business what people say and think of me. I am what I am and do what I do. I expect nothing and accept everything. It makes life so much easier.
