Rock, Paper, Scissors

World RPS LogoI’ve seen many things in my short time on this earth. That’s why I’m not surprised to see that the Rock, Paper, Scissors World Championships just occurred in Toronto on November 11th. The winner, Bob Cooper, beat approximately 500 competitors to claim the gold medal and a whopping $7,000 CDN (roughly $6,188.12 US) cash. Congratulations Bob, you’ve earned it.

Bob attributed his victory to “extensive training” and studying the 27 possible RPS gambits which are documented in the The Official Rock Paper Scissors Strategy Guide. Bob declined to discuss his strategy as he plans to defend his title in RPSWC 2007.
