Subject: [OBRA Chat] Brain Sport...



from http://www.cyclerace.or.kr/cra3/e_cycleracing_4.html ,

a South Korean bicycle racing organization, complete with betting. Some

great logic, though the translation might muddle it slightly:



====================================



Cycle Racing is the interesting bicycle race.



A person can be excited just to see Cycle Racing, but if he buys a

ticket, he can be more excited. A customer can make a bet for who will

be in the first place or the second place after comparing with prior and

recent running record and their strategies of racers.

Cycle Racing, which is a scientific game to hit the result of the race

through each person's assumption, is a kind of brain sport.



Betting is the core that makes Cycle Racing interesting



Please, assume that Cycle Racing is such a just simple game that a

customer is just a spectator and people do not have to ratiocinate the

race using the brain. If it is true, maybe there will be no thrill when

racers try to be in the first place and will be no acclamations when a

expected racer wins. Then, spectators do not have to cheer and be

excited so Cycle Racing will be a boring sport which is just 'a bicycle

race'
