    Physical Chess

    No, not the vendor. Or the well-worn sobriquet for fencing.

    Chessboxing.

    Hi!


    Reminds me of Monty Python´s list of crazy multi-sports.


    Have a nice time!

    That was already posted, I think, and we got into a discussion about chessfencing. I'd do it!
    The pen may be mightier than the sword, but why pick just one?

    Well, I'm good at the air hockey part.
    "When your opponent fears you, then's the moment when you give the fear its own rein, give it the time to work on him. Let it become terror. The terrified man fights himself. Eventually he attacks in desperation. That is the most dangerous moment, but the terrified man can be trusted usually to make a fatal mistake. You are being trained here to detect these mistakes and use them."
