BOBBY—THE MAN WHO LIKES TO BREAK GAMES
Allen O’Connor @ Van00uber’s Blog, Nov. 17, 2014
I love a story about someone who marches to their own drummer. Quite often, as Allen tells us, the non-conformist comes out on top. Take Coup for example…
Bobby’s strategy is simple: never look at the cards that you have face down and you don’t have to lie; just make the move that is best suited to the situation that you are in. Other players find it difficult to challenge Bobby as they know that he has not seen his cards.
