Chess anyone?

Scott McGill

I have been playing and studying chess now for about 2 yrs. I play on average 3/4 games a day online. One huge benefit I've found to chess is that when I am playing all the worries and stress of the deals or family or whatever disappear. Chess is so consuming that when you are playing you can think of nothing else. I find it very therapeutic.

Was just curious if any other bigger pockets members enjoyed learning and playing chess. I would love to hear about what ranking you are at and what your favorite openings are for white and black.

I'm currently ranked 1268. Highest 1335. On chess.com

I really love danish gambit (white)

And icelandic gambit (black) when I can.

Sorry if I just nerded up this awesome web page.

Thanks

Scott Mac

Of chess it has often been said that life is not long enough for it - but that is the fault of life, not chess. - William Ewart Napier
