At times Sammy would have the score of a game kept for him. As best as

could determine, if he was playing chess for *NO* money -- as for the
Manhattan Chess Club team on occasion -- he was able to play on the
Sabbath,

someone
better versed in Judaism could explain this reasoning better than I.

It's a peculiar God that forbids you to work, but says it's OK to have
someone else work for you.

It's a man made prohibition.
