The Pawn’s Gambit

When a dad moves the last 2 or 3 beers in a 12 (or 24) pack to the front row so that his wife thinks the case is full and he didn’t drink the whole case already. He is the pawn of the house and the gambit is she finds out he drank 10-18 beers.

“Hey man after this game I gotta run to get more beer because I don’t have enough to run the Pawn’s Gambit before my wife gets home”
