Chess And Magic. Options

It is said that the game of Chess is an excellent way for developing: concentration, logic, patience, iq levels, and much more. Close scrutiny would show that chess would be an excellent tool for magical training, just as concentration and visualisation are.

I'm willing to suggest that an hour of chess per day can enhance the levels of the mind to an extraordinary level, and extremely prudent for magical growth. Creativity, logic, concentration, comparison, etc.

What do you believe? Any chess players here?

Anyone know a better place to play?

Any challengers?

I am playing at gameknot.com. Basically I like the longer time limit, which allows me to finish the game when ever I have the free time to do so. My username is : vaso.

Regarding chess, I agree with what Acid said above. Anybody can move the pieces by the rules, but to manipulate your opponent to make a certain move that you need him to make, or to distract him, so he won't realise what your intentions are until it is to late for him, is another thing...
