Chess: That big unknown.




I'm going to tell you about a very popular board game that people think is very difficult and boring but in my opinion that isn't true.

Firstly, it's a very funny game with billions of possible different combinations; each entry is an amazing battle in the chessboard with the aim of killing the rival king, and you must play offensive and defensive at the same time.

Secondly, it isn't difficult to learn the basic rules; if you want to improve you must practice and think fast!

In conclusion, I think people that say chess is not fun must try it... and enjoy!
