Chess Players?

I was just wondering if this is the right place to come to talk about chess, I know a lot of poker players also play it (Dan Harrington is my idle btw) Anyone in here a potential opponent. We can play here in the thread. I love the game.

yeah, this is the correct place to talk about chess. We have had many games and many conversations about chess gone on here. Just to pimp out my own threads, here is a chess game I ran where the whole forum played an IM

naturally it ended in a draw after I brought in a ringer for the forum

Hey Pyramid, nice to meet you. I pretty much never post in POG but try to read the threads on chess. If you want to play a game in the thread, i'm down. Just start it off.

Move the pieces, click make diagram, and upload it to your favorite photo hosting site. Use the image tag here and there you go.

Also, small hijack, I'd be interested in a speed chess tournament.
