I think chess is estimated to be on the order of 10^40, and heads-up limit hold-em is on the order of 10^15 or so. Chess is much bigger.

And go is even bigger still. According to Wikipedia, there are between 10^43 and 10^50 possible chess positions. But 10^170 possible Go positions.

The game of NIM has an infinite number of possible positions. However, the winning strategy is easy.
