I've been playing chess for 15 years. I'm not that good. This little kid that I know has been playing chess for 4 years. He's rated 2400. WTF?!?!?

Clearly a chess prodigy and better than you

Maube you are not trying that hard, You have been playing for 15 years and your rating is 1725?

Some things just don't click with certain individuals.  I think of my brother who was a child prodigy on the piano.  He started playing on his own at three years of age and was transposing music at four.  I took guitar lessons for two years as a teenager and could only play a few notes on the page along with some chords.  I can barely play the radio.  Go figure.

I mean, there's some people that have been playing for >20 years and have a rating of 300...

Chess is like speaking, Just because you've done it for a long time doesn't mean great words come out of your mouth ^^

It's like premio says--some things just don't click with certain individuals. I've been playing with my tiny weenie for 15 years and, despite putting in hours of practice each week, I am no better at it than when I first started.

That has nothing to do with Chess, rather with the skill to improve in this kind of 'game'

I wasn't asking for opinions.  I was stating a fact.

Try google 'fact definition'. So my answer due to the fact that Chess is treated as Sport and sometimes not.

 

Hope this helps you.

This argument has already been definitively settled.  I don't need to look up definitions.

U wouldn't need to argue in case of a fact, so obviously you sayingby urself that its not a fact.

This isn't up for debate.  Your personal attack against me only highlights your inability to reason.

If you don't understand the meaning of facts you shouldn't start a meaningless debate. Most times its helpful to know about things before startinga debate. So back to 'google fact definition'.

 

Hope tis helps you.

I appreciate your concession.  It's settled: chess is a sport.

Check You dictionary for 'Conzession' and 'stating wrong things asa fact'

 

You really should stop drinking, especially with your religion,
