Close, but no cigar! The inventor of chess asked for just one grain of rice..... One grain of rice on the first square of the chess board, to be doubled each time the rice was moved to the next square. Not thinking, the emperor agreed!!! Of course, by the time the grain of rice was doubled to the final square, the emperor was broke, and their was not enough rice in all of china to pay the wager. LOL Yogi, who is getting better at chess, slowly but surely.
