"chess is one of the best games to play to improve thinking skills, concentration, and awareness." My rating begs to differ.

My mother achieved Life Master rating in Bridge three times. She had boxes full of decks of cards she had given to her in tournaments and by friends etc, that she never used. She didn't care about fancy cards, she just wanted to play Bridge. Seems like a healthy attitude for chess players also.

My dad bought me an Onyx chess set for Christmas for a second I thought it was a normal chess set and then he said “that is not a normal chess set it’s fragile so be careful with it” he got it from Mexico then I searched up fragile chess sets and I found the same chess set but different color, so I searched up onyx chess set and I realized that it’s very expensive and fragile :^

Also something I’ve noticed, if they advertise the board with black on the bottom right square instead of white, then the board is sideways and they most likely can’t be trustworthy. Sometimes I like looking up chess boards and counting how many have made this mistake. Also although I love Ralph Lauren, they sell a chess set for thousands of dollars with the black on the right, reviews saying it’s too small, and that the pieces are easily prone to falling over

@@Luna-ol2qy [ I wrote a long reply hours ago that has somehow vanished, so I've had to reconstruct it below! ] The answer depends greatly on many factors: how much do you want to spend? Plastic or wood? Rough treatment or treasured art treatment? It just so happens that the set shown at the very beginning of this video is actually a great one! But it's expensive, starting at $380. There's also a much cheaper plastic version with a not-so great folding cardboard board for only $32, but I'd buy it from chesshouse.com instead since I'm in the US, not Europe. You can get a very well-made and heavy plastic set with an indestructible silicone board in a nice box for $60 - the "Best Chess Set Ever XL - Quadruple Weight 4X Pieces" from www.bestchesssetever.com/collections/chess-sets/products/quadruple-weighted-pieces-black-board, but Amazon also has it and you can't beat their shipping: www.amazon.com/dp/B00CDFTYJ8 The House of Staunton sells lots of high quality sets, both plastic and wood, for a huge range of prices, but many of the cheaper (

1:18 That knight's an absolute dog. 1:26 It looks there as if the pieces are too small for the board. 1:29 The *what* design? If you mean Staunton, it's pronounced Staunton, and no way are those pieces Staunton, especially the knights.

Chesshouse or the United States Chess Federation carry a number of these. :)
