Have you seen my chess trophy? It's 10 inches high in the shape of a Knight and I seem to have misplaced it somewhere. (If you are familiar with the movie, Blast From the Past, you may recognize this as a variant of Brendan Fraser's, " Congressional Medal of Honor" gambit he used successfully to pick up two women in the night club.)
What’s a good pick up line that shows your good at chess without making you sound nerdy?

O.o
About 18 months ago, I read an online profile in which the woman mentioned one of her hobbies was chess. My profile also mentions chess as a hobby. I wrote her a note in which I mentioned that I play the Dutch Defense (no innuendo attached), but she never wrote back. Perhaps I should have mentioned the London System instead.

I'd prefer "hey, I know a real traditional English street market a mile away that sells hundreds of different types of fruits and vegetables and I was just going to walk there to get some for dinner .... would you like to see it and I could cook them if you're hungry?"
I've actually used that on at least two occasions. NEVER chess.
She’d probably reply ‘I’m not an f***ing vegetarian I prefer meat and take me to a proper restaurant if you’re going to ask me out you tight w****r’

Unless she was a vegetarian and thought the idea was romantic instead of being a cheapskate, then you’ve got your in.
But personally I’ll avoid the risk by sticking to chess.

Yes. Screenshot the conversations while blacking out the names. For your profile pic, do a chess one. Finally, on your profile description, put some witty comment about how you love chess. One pick up line to use should be to have a normal conversation, then if it goes far enough, say “Sometime, would you like me to take you out for dinner for the knight?” That would be funny to interrupt the conversation with a chess pickup line.
There isnt one.

This topic is for loser putzes. Just be confident, little boys - forget about pick up lines.

Not everybody has great hair.
“i was the chess champion of a brothel”.
‘And don’t worry I always used ample protection: 4 pawns and a knight on kingside.’
