The article gives two different versions re: the "Pit" card game. What is the correct story?:
"1893–1912: Kentucky period
In May 1902, ... He invented Pit (or Board of Trade), a card game which simulated wheat-market trading. The game became popular, but when he sent the idea to a game company it copyrighted it and he received no royalties...
"1912–1923: Selma period
... He invented Pit, a card game based on commodities trading at the Chicago Board of Trade, to help raise money; the game is still sold today."

I deleted the second iteration because the game was first marketed in 1904, during the "1893-1912" era, and hence too early for the "1912-1923" era. Catherineyronwode (talk) 17:39, 26 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
