Thanks Anna10…I will.
My brother wants me to watch it because there’s scenes in the movie where Fischer looks like I did during my psychosis…or so my brother says. I think The Fish was shizophrenic was he not?
This is the documentary I’m talking about.
I know all the rules but winning is not a reality, it’s just an illusion/dream.
you mean like by calling out “bishop 8 to rook 19?” I could never play like that.
If someone asks to play chess I say I don’t know how even though I do
I don’t have the concentration for it
Like this…
A standard opening pawn move might be D2-D4…etc.
I would be interesting in playing the board with people we could find an online game or ios app and play with each other. Sounds fun im in

I wish I could play chess. My father tried to teach me a little but wasn’t successful. I have problems with sequential and logical thinking which make it hard to grasp the game.
Logical and sequential thinking are also encountered in chess and are possibly the two most important aspects when calculating combinations. Sequential thinking comes into practice when having to plan ahead and working out sequences (which can get very complex when we consider the increase in possibilities after each move), whilst logical thinking is used when reacting to opponents’ plans, and working out our own at each and every turn. Obviously these two attributes are both heavily linked to maths where using logic is important and the ability to work through problems sequentially becomes invaluable.
