Where can I download a good game of checker

Checkers is solved, so why bother?

And what's your point?
Does the fact, that it is solved, mean that YOU (or any usual checkers program) would play perfectly?

My point:
I think a lot of people have tendency to lose motivation when they happen to find that the game is "solved" by a computer. It's finished. They move on to other games that are more challenging.

I see your point, but what percentage of the world population can beat the free available checker games like Cake, or WCC.

PS: I feel that it should be the contrary if most people can NOT beat the mojority of the free chess programs available, then it should give then a motivation to see it they can try to beat the free available checker programs

Knock yourself out. Tinsley played more than 4 games against Chinook and won.

Well, then you should also move on to another game -

Only the variant most boring - 8x8 english checkers - is allegedly solved.

All the other variants are not solved.
