Chess is of the most played and popular game of the world, this is not possible that everyone playing this game is destined to play or gifted to play the best way, What could be the reason behind the thing that most of the people feel like they should play Chess. But Why???

Lots of people do it just to relax, train their brain, have fun, try something new, or just as a way to pass the time. I do it because it is fun and i can train my brain and relax(as contradictory as that sounds it makes sense in my head). Wait, you just joined, did two tactics, and asked why people play? Why not play some games yourself. Surely you will be able to understand better the reasons people play.

Now that IS peculiar. Some people have this thing about chess, like it is only for people with high IQ or something and avoid it. This is very sad, for people have made lots of discoveries showing that chess is actually beneficial.
