SMOKING IS BAD FOR YOU

Thanks for your information.

Can you prove it? To me and my friends having a good Cuban cigar provides great pleasure while playing chess. A good cigar offers exciting flavours on the palate. How can you tell what is good for us?

I can prove smoking a cigar a day - keep you alive longer than the average American non-smoker! Major cause of death for men is coronary related. Table 31:

Well, after my comment in this forum 6 years ago!!!, its nice to hear about it and let me tell you something: a lot of things can kill a man. Even red meat...and other things we aren't aware of. Keep the right quantity that's my advice. And play chess! It's good for the heart!

Red meat can't kill someone! Ask Bruce Lee!

There is no such thing as free unless the thing in question is without value. Quoting random internet.

Smoking may be bad for my health,but when the dr. asked if I wanted to quit I asked who I should kill first.I do not drink alcohol, like the rest of my family,but will not smoke around people that does not smoke.A good chess game and a cigarette will be fine..

I'm okay with smokers, as long as they are courteous of others. +1 to Chsskrazy. :-)

Just wondering if anybody enjoys a fine cigar or a pipe smoke during their games.  It's getting harder and harder to find places where you can smoke a pipe or cigar in public, but I sure enjoy it when I have the chance.  Also, for the smokers, any favorite cigars/blends for your games?  I'm a big fan of longer panatelas for chess games, as they tend to last just about the right amount of time.

Pipe (mostly English/Balkan, VaBur, and VaPer blends) and cigar smoker here.

https://tabex-store.com/  Tabex is a nicotine replacement therapy that costs around 12p a pill and can triple your chances of quitting smoking. It works by delivering an alkaloid called cytisine, which is found in the Laburnum Tree. The drug has been around for 40 years and has proven to help smokers quit. In addition, Tabex costs a fraction of the price of other methods, such as nicotine patches.

Absolutely! My pipes and chess sets are my worldy treasures, if I'm sat in my favourite chair with one of my favourite pipes mulling over a game of chess then I'm very happy! This makes me sound sophisticated and aged but I'm a regular 38 year old guy that just likes to change life's channel from time to time.
