Big Nate by Lincoln Peirce for October 10, 2012

Alright, who’s got a bag of Cheez Doodles or a book of insults? That’s how Nate’ll win

I think they are going to draw. Aren’t they playing with chess clocks?

Alright, I’ve seen enough. If you bet with a friend and didnt be any money, your OK, but if you bet cash, THEN I’d get what you mean

I’m tired of the old girl besting the guy plot. It’s done and over. Nate, stop being a nervous nellie and trounce her!

I have a sister i once beat in 5 minutes!! and she knew how to play chess!!

Jen, I’m with you, I hope he trounces her… Gina’s reaction would be priceless..

Bet he is just faking i.

This story is tiresome. Chess is one of Nate’s strenghts. I’m tired of Gina always besting him. I hope the author let’s Nate have some dignity and lets him defeat Gina. Nate can’t lose at everything, and Gina needs to realize that she’s capable of failure.

I agree!! A set-up….either Nate’s setting her up, or Lincoln’s setting at least some of us up, or…..both!!

Gina’s a bia**h

Nate needs to throw some Yo mama jokes at her to unsettle her.

Nate is in trouble. He made the mistake of letting an unknown (in skill) player intimidate him and throw his game off. If he had used a less than common opening with speed and confidence, he probably would have humiliated Gina for once.

Choke!

Prediction: Nate loses and what follows is a week of gloom until he finds something he can do better than Gina.

YOU CAN DO THIS NATE

I’m sorry Nate no do-overs.

one don’t take…

C’mon Nate!!! You’ve been the number 2 (he was 1 before Artur came) Player on the chess club for YEARS!!! Gina has been at this for 2 months! YOU CAN DO THIS!!!

Confidence Nate!

Um, I didn’t. There were no swear words.

C’mon Nate, burn Gina with your trash talk! Can’t wait too see what happens :D

That’s it. Gina beat Nate.

Same thing as last strip?

No do-overs, Nate.
