I love the sequence here. He's been thinking of that move for 40 years

Something about a table made for chess bothers me. IDK why though. It makes sense.

Buddahriffic ,

That's not a table. It's a thick chess board with a pedestal.

yet no real use found for en passant

"Pawns can only move one space, except for their first move, when they can move two" - Statement by the utterly deranged.

ChaoticNeutralCzech ,

I'm already keeping track of the kings and rooks for castling reasons. Remembering whether any of the 16 pawns has moved is too overwhelming and turns IRL chess into a game of who can get away with the other player's bad memory.

Err... Maybe I just missed the joke, but... If the pawn is in its initial position it means it hasn't moved yet.

ChaoticNeutralCzech ,

Yes, you missed the joke. I know pawns can only move in one direction on the Y-axis.

CptEnder ,

Wonder if he's ranked

tacosplease ,

Just looking loosely at the board I can see he's controlling the center in 2 if not all 3 pictures, so he's at least got good fundamentals. Would be fun to know his rank.

Buddahriffic ,

I'd like to see some of his games.

Who's the other guy?

Why does his ear change from oblong to round

A_Very_Big_Fan Mod ,

Looks like the image is just too compressed to distinguish his ear from his head

Track_Shovel ,

Aww. He died.

I'm sad Arnie lost a good friend.
Arnie is a questionable human, but still no one deserves to lose a life long friend

Holy crap, how long does a game of chess take?!

My great-uncle used to play chess by mail.
