Does that frighten you?
WTf, did a politics thread get moved?
So, I find it much easier to beat a person at chess rather than a computer.
Anyone else experience this?
Have you tried stacking two in parallel? Double the CPU power, and it will crush you!It depends on the computer, my VIC 20 doesn't seem that hard to beat.

@SnapsProvolone is correct the 4 center squares are the most important because who ever controls those can control the board. When the game fist starts you want to control or target more squares on your opponents side of the board to gain control or a hand up on your opponent.What are the most important squares on the board?
ive been playing since the early 70s. i pretty much play every day on line and play with 2 chess clubs..one on friday night and the other on sunday nights, i even get games in during the week at a coffee house.
i enjoy the game and am just a average club player, no way can i make my living from it.
its the cheapest hobby i got, and i never got in trouble over a chess board. here is a pic of a table i had with me in desert storm. View attachment 3335844
That is a correct choice. I thought about that after I posted.those surrounding the king?
Shows how long it's been since i've played lol. I have tried and tried to get my 15 yr old son to play with me but he refuses.
