I haven't played chess in probably 15 years . . . I wouldn't mind playing a game with someone just to see if I can remember how to play. I'd be easy to beat I'm sure, I know none of the established strategies or any real chess skills, but I am sure I remember how each piece can move
:)

Glad to see that 4-5 moves a day is the normal mate as i thought your head would be done in as i was taking so long,lol,this is my 1st game in years and i always like to take my time,i wasn't sure you had it running so well with so many others,i hope you get the rewards for doing it and i will defo be playing when i can,this game is taking so long as i'm taking an hour or2 at end of my night after the poker to then make my moves and i stupidly accepted another 4 games also so i apologise for the delay sometimes.

curt...i recommend you challenge ' bruce0316 ' on rhp... tell him i put ya forward...he aint an orger, but a chess club member from the other site.....should be a cool reintroduction to the game for ya...:)...hope ya enjoy it...
brady..:)...no worries at all mate...its a great game...still lots of play left ...
my reward is seeing people play chess and improving...even more rewarding is seeing players come back to the game and enjoy their chess again after maybe letting it go for a few years....
take yer time mate.....no pressure...
i love both games... chess and poker.... some of the concepts and skills are certainly transferable, even though the games differ so much.
