    Re: Chess not covered by BBC Sport??

    I think Chess is a great game but I consider it just that a game. If someone wants to consider it a sport that's ok with me but it's really more of a game than a sport. It's much better in my opinion than the games that involve dice and things like roulette wheels where chance is very much involoved. If you win in Chess it's probably something like 95% because of your knowledge and skill at the game and perhaps something like 5% or less chance or luck. There is some luck involved because you might make a move that appears to be good to you. There might be many reasons that the move is actually a great move but you don't see why so there can be some luck in it.

    I used to have an Internet Chess Club membership but it has expired. They cover such things and give commentary and even video of many matches. Maybe you could get coverage of the match with a free trial membership.

    Make as many mistakes as you can as quickly as you can. We want to make sure that we make a great enough number of mistakes in a given amount of time so that we can be successful.
