If you think the UNO Twitch event is a punchline, allow me to play my Reverse card

It's a headline that seems ripe for satire: UNO is trying to become the hot new esport. Mattel, which owns the rights to UNO, is putting $50,000 up for grabs with the UNO Championship Series. The tournament will begin with a series of qualifying rounds before heading to L.A. for a November 11 finale. That event will be streamed on Twitch, where card sharks will duke it out as they vie for the grand prize. So yes, it sounds silly to use a predominantly luck-based game as the foundation for a high-stakes competition. Visit Tubefilter for more great stories.
