@whodey saidI knew a fellow who played at a chess club I attended. He lost in a friendly game, wasn't even a tournament and he hurled his king across the room. He was escorted from the room. I heard he decided to join a pool club and thought great now he has a stick if he gets upset about losing. True Story!!!
Life is like chess, you keep playing as it gets harder and harder and harder till you are forced to tip the king at some point.

@caesar-salad saidIt's the stale mates I regret.
Life is like a game of chess ...
full of regrettable moves and clumsy attempts at mating.
@the-gravedigger saidCould you Elaborate About the "marriage"-thing in Chess?
Chess is like love.
One wrong move and your married.
Edit: I am happily married in real life (28 years and counting) does that explain my rather weak Chess abilities?

@very-rusty saidI'm not tempted. It would be way too easy.
Just get you mind out of the gutter and think about balls being played with on a table and a stick is used!!! 😛 😉
