    i was playing chess a few years ago, then teaching kids chess in a library. it's the only thing i can teach well. i'm an average player, but i have a reasonable understanding of it. do you enjoy playing? oh, i'd have horrible temper tantrums when i'd lose..........one reason i gave it up.

    i have a love hate relationship with chess :)   i love it when i win and hate it when i lose.

    I mainly lose when i don't spot a piece about to be taken. Now i am working on that area.  I generally play  enjoy speed chess   ie the games ends in 10 minutes and a winner then declared by points.  SO decisions are fast and I make mistakes ( the computer doesnt ). Human/human speed chess can lead to u beating someone high ranking which encourages you. 

    i keep it light and try to improve a wee bit. I am still at beginner level and dont mind being there. I appreciate the game and understand why it is mind blowing/interesting/important.

    nowadays u can lower the skill level so you can win all the time or 9 out of 10 times. I might have to do that because my ability to end a game/kill the king quickly is not good Slight smile I just laugh at myself Slight smile
