It’s time for everyone’s favorite game, “Chess tournament or Casino?”!!!! The game is simple, you get 1 point per question and you have to tell me if the prompt is the name of a casino, or a high-level chess tournament. Ready to play?
And that’s the game! Let me know your score out of 11.

Actually called “Bois Forte” which when translated from French, is strong wood.

Nope. It sounded too much like a casino anyway so it had to be chess.

I got 6 out of 11.  I had only heard of one of these.  The rest were (un?)educated guesses.
BTW, I thought the Chicken Ranch was a brothel!
