Title: welcome to this new area for chess
Post by: stog on February 19, 2009, 01:11:09 AM
welcome to this new area. the daddy of em all perhaps. i was taught backgammon by a grandmaster who used to "read" the great matches in the bog . i last played a gnu chess beast but got to cheating too often with the undo button. any recommendations for us casual players as well as the serious punter?
