What if George Washington plays a chess game? George Washington will rename the king as 'president'.

What if Bobby Fischer had wandered onto the set while they were filming Searching for Bobby Fischer?

They'd have to come up with a new title.

What if Bobby Fischer played Carpov in the world championship? Carpov may never become world champion. Kasparov may not become world champion... Magnus may not become world champion.

What if Karjakin beat Carlsen in that WCC match...

What if chess was never invented.

What if chess was never invented? I would still be losing card games of Rummy and Crazy Eights to my older sisters.

If chess was never invented, we wouldn't be chatting here. This topic would never have come up.

What if there were 100 squares on the chess board.

GoodKnight0BadBishop

I saw that coming.

What if this forum topic was never created in the first place?

I'm sure those guys would still prove their worth. Fischer would be World Champion for a few more years, then lose a dramatic WCC to Kasparov (and disappear from there! tongue.png). Kasparov would be very dominant until Carlsen beats him! tongue.png

@EOGuel Carlsen wasn't destined to play Kasparov. It's Kramnik. 

DanielGuel

Yeah, I was realizing Kaspy would be a bit old, and Carlsen a bit young.
