      Checkers is actually pretty complicated. At a high level the moves that they find are utterly insane. I just find it a bit boring perhaps but it definitely isn't a simple game ripe for analogies related to being stupid.

    crazy that they used to literally mine under the defences. it was banned in 1849 when the floor of the tournament hall collapsed causing Howard Staunton to fall in the hole and sprain his castling finger, leaving him unable to continue the match. in keeping with the gentlemanly spirit of the age his opponent sportingly offered a draw, despite being French.

    I'd like to apologize for my chess skills not being at the level they should be. I feel I need to explain myself a bit here. It all happened after I'd spent 10 million seconds trying to figure out if I should capture the pawn on f5 with my pawn on g5 which of course was a stupid move but I thought it was the best move nonetheless. So I once again apologize for my lack of proper chess skills. Hopefully Magnum Charcoal won't see this comment.

    The FX around 4:00 is a bit too much mate

    How dangerous is it for you to visit the parallel universe for us? Is Botez really DJing there? Be safe!

    I also apologie, I was all about capturing with the g pawn, the excuse is that I'm bad. Though I found the mate in 2, once you told us that it was there.... ok that's not good either haha.

    I took towards the centre: punishment - watch another Epic Chess video!
