A big and clever gnat
"Chess is a sea in which a gnat may drink and an elephant may bathe." – Indian proverb
"I might add that if a gnat studies in the right way, he may eventually become an elephant." – Nigel Davies
i always thought it was chess is a sea were a gnat may bath and an elephant may drown
It's definitely "a gnat may drink". There's even a book named after the saying...

I have to say, I am tickled by the image of a gulping gnat.
My friend is 10 (like me) and he has a IQ of 148 and is in calculus
Oh yeah? Well, my IQ is 178 and I'm in analysis!
Well my name's Peter Gabriel and I'm in Genesis.

Remember the Ark? Yeah, well I built that, actually.
The guy who built the ark ended up as a drunk. Sorry to hear that about you, T-Misha.
He became a "streetbum" actually
Super Nintendo, Sega Genesis - when I was dead broke man I couldn't picture this.
Biggie? That you?
If you study chess for 30 hours a day for the next ten years then the GM title should be no trouble at all. For those who say you can't study 30 hours a day, Its difficult to study 30 hours a day but not totally impossible. You just need to be on a jet traveling west. By the time you get to be GM you will have logged a lot of frequent flyer miles.
There's only 24 hours in a day.... how can you study chess for "30 hours a day" lol

Its possible.
But only if you do it eight days a week.
I don't think anyone with genius IQ would waste their life mastering a board game :p
Funny... Whenever I'm playing chess, I'm doing it because I want to do it rather than anything else, because I'm having so much fun doing it. Funny how you would call that a "waste of time".
Hi,
Been Playing chess from my college days [ I mean friendly matches] and was serious on settling in Engineering career. Now after that (at the age of 32) playing serious chess [tournaments in clubs] and of course dreaming about getting GM title. Why getting GM is not possible at this age? Is it a impossible thing? If not so how much minimum time and effort one should put on daily basis towards that goal? [including theory and practice]. How the time is shared among the Theory and Practical games?
sounds like spamton ngl
