I do enjoy 960 as a casual player feels more variant based and keeps me guessing. I did not know the Bobby Fischer connection to it. Do you have more information about that? Thanks.

I wish only the best for chess 960 I think it's great.

IMHO because many starting positions in 960 just suck.

960 chess is a fun and refreshing way to play howver the setup can be a bit haphazard , morover there are no specific opening or stratergies you can imploy nevertheless it is a fun and col way to surprise other and have a laugh while playing chess

It's 500% better than normal chess, which is all about memory. That's why Carlsen got beaten so badly by So.
