I only play with my dad. I bought a nice Chess set when I was in Italy while serving in the Navy. There was a two year stretch that was probably the best of our lives. I had a weird work schedule but it gave Thursday thru Saturday’s off. Every Friday I would stop by for us to play. I find it funny I saw this thread right after my wife blew my mind while watching the first Harry Potter movie. She said you realize the crazy handicap Ron is playing? Keeping his King, Harry, Hermione and himself safe during that game. ---

I started bartending part-time and always keep a Chess board set up on the bar in case anyone wants a game. I’ve had a few takers! I also have flyers up with a challenge posted, I’m trying to find good players in my area. So far nobody’s bitten at that. And in the time since I’ve gotten the Chess app I’ve had many excellent games against StringTied and possibly some other members from here, not sure what your Chess names all are!

Yes more chess lovers! I haven’t played in a while but last time I was active I was around 1800 and mainly played Kings Indian & Catalan. I heavily preferred 3-5 minute games. I really just play OTB now. Oddly enough I haven’t seen the Queen’s Gambit lol. What got me into chess was the movie ‘Pawn Sacrifice’ where Tobey Maguire played Bobby Fischer and Liev Schreiber played Boris Spassky. ---
