    You're a bad chess player if you lose to me.

    You know you're a bad chess player when you are overconfident.

    You're a bad chess player when you know what it takes to be a bad chess player Cool

    Today, your chess isn't half bad.

    As fate would have it, there is no peace for the weary.

    Sounds like a challenge in the making. Can we watch?    And you should know that bottles of ketchup can be tough!!  I had to use a knife on one once.

    I'm pretty sure stabbing your opponent is against FIDE rules.

    LOL!

    And even funnier:

    It's pretty difficult to stab your opponent during online chess also.  I guess it wouldn't be "virtually" impossible though.

    You're a bad chess player when you make a sacrifice that is absolutely winning yet fail with the next move.

    You add a codicil to your Will requesting that your favorite chess set be buried with you. You want to put it out of its misery.

    Good one, e4!  I never thought I'd get a laugh out of this stupid thread, but you just proved me wrong. Smile

    You know you could be a grandmaster if you were to put in the time and money. Couple hours a week studying. Maybe a hundred bucks for a good coach.

    But, you choose not to because you "have a life".

    Besides, really good chess players simply have a fetish...a paroxysmal fetish. Thus, they are to be pitied.

    Your all-time favorite chess book is: 

    I Was Tortured in the Pasadena Jailhouse

    It was written by your favorite chess player, Joey Casablanca

    You grabbed opponent' piece to checkmate your own king and claim victory.

    your opponent is not allowed to read a book during a chess tournament. how can you tell that he hasn't his chess notes in one of his pages. if it is a chess book he might even have the position in the book that is in the game with best move suggestion and explanation.

    who said it was a tournant.

    You would be surprised at how well some blind people can play.
