Chess Around the Net


Prisoners of war in WWII received smuggled mini chess sets. Each set had tools to escape the POW camp ... very interesting! One is up for auction. Read here for more.

These kids get up early every day to play chess at 7:00am. I wonder if blunders are more prevalent in the morning than the evening?

I don't watch Dancing with the Stars, but for what it's worth, a chess player was a finalist on the show ... until she was accused of taking lessons and being a professional dancer.
