Man In Cabin

Q: A man is sitting in a cabin, dead. There is no one else in the room. He is sitting on a chair at a table. Around the table are three empty chairs. There is a deck of cards on the table. On the wall are three empty hooks. How did the man die?

A: He was in a cabin on a boat. He was fishing with three friends, when the boat began to sink. None of them could swim, and there were only three life jackets. They played a game of cards to see who would get the life jackets, and he lost.
