I love cricket, Foot ball, Volley ball More and more out door games rather than indoor games. Because simultaneously we have to improve our body fitness.

Yeah, im a chess lover too. I liked this game since it is really challenging and requires critical thinking which other games lack to this extent.

Chess is a great strategic game. I admit that I'm pretty bad at it, but I'm trying to learn. My brother, however, is probably a good thinker, because he is a very good player, considering the fact that nobody has ever taught him strategies. I joined the Chess Club at my school, and the students there were nice enough to teach me some techniques, which helped me improve.

Hi there, I've been playing chess for over 40 years and still struggle to play it well.
I was taught by my best friend (with whom I still play games regularly at www.Stansco.com) and sad to say, I only ever beat him rarely!
I think many people have the wrong idea about chess and chess players; regarding the game as high-brow and the players as weird geeks. Oh yes, both of these accusations can be 100% accurate at times - but then again, at times, they can be 100% inaccurate too!
One of the great thingsa bout chess is that it can be looked at as a game of both strategy AND combat - but unlike so many games, no-one gets hurt!
Hey, there's an idea, why not persuade the World's leaders that the next time they're struggling to settle their differences, instead of bombing and killing innocent civilians, they get out the chess board(s) and settle things that way.
Just a thought
