    Chris Chena turned down $10M for juegos.com

    It's public knowledge now so I am not betraying any confidences, but the crazy boy genius has turned down a $10M offer for juegos.com.

    Chris recently underwent a routine sinus operation and almost died on the operating table. His perspective on life is now of course changed forever.

    Speedy recovery to the phenom from Paraguay and best of luck with the sale.

    If you don't know who this guy is, here's a link. Chris is a class act all the way:

    PS: He paid under a million in 2004 to buy the name he's now flipping for 10x +

        thanks God they cancelled my sinus surgery early this year

        BTW you could have told us that "Juegos' means "games" since for most people it isnt that clear

                  from that 2004 article

                  Kazalite.com claimed top honors for Pool.com after selling for a whopping $83,500 in an auction there. The high traffic domain scores 1849 with the extension in Overture.


                  and.... current overture 82
