I love the game although I hate losing a game against my younger bro, who is getting better and better!

i like playing chess, believe it or not after you get the basic rules into your head the game itself is quite easy (winning is not) it's a matter of "seeing" different strategies, the ones your opponent will make, and your counter-attacks, if you learn it, you will enjoy it.

Yes I have played chess a lot. I was in a chess club in high school. Not sure why other than I really liked the teacher in charge. But the club was really fun, we had tournaments and learned a lot of tricks about winning at chess. I have not found many people who like the game so I never get to play any more. Do you play?

From my opinion, if you want to play chess you got to be smart, think your every move, foucus alot. And it take's years of practice and devotion. Not many people know's to play chess because it's a hard game. I know how to play chess but i'm not that good, and i play from time to time... i prefer to play other games that are more easyer.

i have a brother who's very serious at playing chess. 11yrs older than me. when i was still about 8-9yrs old, he would challenge me to a game of chess. he would have to loose his queen and 2 towers to have a challenging game. eventually, it went down to just the queen or just the towers, till it eventually went down to just the horses. after that, we didnt play anymore. if he looses a pc, i win and if he doesnt loose a pc, i loose. then, he taught me to play mind chess! u bet he forced me to it! i had to go pawn to king 4! and he would respond and i would just have to imagine where the move was! anyway, it helped me a lot! i was 15 and i got my 1st gold medal for chess! competing with a lot of state colleges in our province! then i stopped playing...
