With Bobby Fischer's death today, one of the best chess players in the world has left us.
Which reminds me that I really do like to play chess quite a bit, being Russian and all I think every kid there learns it, it's whether you pursue it or not.
In college we used to stage floor tournaments in our dorm, it was awesome, I was champion quite a few times, but I'd get beat too.
I love the game, it requires a lot of future-thinking and intellect. Strategic planning etc. Always have to evolve with your strategy. I love spanking guys that use the same strategy over and over again.
Anyone know of any websites that I can play during work that don't have a time-limit? That is I can make a move, and go do work, get some done and then come back to make my next move if the guy playing opposite of me has done his. I hate playing on Yahoo! because people get SOO impatient.
...word, I'm a total nerd, I know. |

I haven't played in years now - but used to play really, really regularly when I first started school.
Now I want to go track down a sweet old chess board for the house... |

Neat - if it stays relatively low priced I might try to snatch that up right at the end. |

my grandad used to teach me too from about age 4 & we'd play every week that he came for dinner until he died. Since then i've barely played. I don't think I remember much at all about the game.
And i thought the best player in the world was the psychic kid from x-files :p |
