Roger Ritchie Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 My mates younger brother plays chess for England. When we were kids I used to think it pretty impressive that he was playing for England, but didn't really have much of an opinion on Chess, then I saw that he was taking home £700 for coming runner up in Chess competitions when he was 13 and started to wish my mum and dad had bought me a chess set instead of Hungry, Hungry Hippo's.

Zorrro Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 Football certainly wrecked mine. The teacher at school never forgave me after I refused to play for England U16s because it was on a Saturday and Latics were at home (worth it though, we beat Boro 4-1) Which teacher was it?

24hoursfromtulsehill Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 Hello again!!!! Last night we were playing and my rook was on the square next to his bishop, which in turn was on the square next to his king. It was his move and he moved his bishop which left his king in clear danger. He said 'well its not trapped I will just move it next turn' but my rook could take his king, which I now know is not the aim of the game, so what happens. Has he lost? This is known as a pin. Your rook pinned his bishop. Not sure how I feel about chess generally. I used to think it was an improving activity and noble pursuit and all that, but there's something deeply dirty about it. Obsession is one thing, psychological imbalances of other less pleasant types are another. Bobby Fischer is not so much an exemplar in this respect as the head of a global historical school.

Monty Burns Posted December 12, 2011 Author Share Posted December 12, 2011 Are there any shops about that sell novelty pieces? Not for me, I was thinking on getting one set of harry potter pieces for him for xmas. But all I can find online are full sets with a baord etcetera, which obviously I dont want!

Rocky_Latic Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 Just bought the lad I work with a 'shot glass chess' set (it has the pictures on the side). This seems like the cool version of chess and should make it a bit interesting when I pop up on christmas day night with a bottle of jager.
