T2W Poker/Chess Society?

[Nowler]

Any of you folks play poker or chess?

I enjoy playing both...not super at either but they are great games!
Not played either for a while but I have been playing them a bit more lately.

Perhaps we could get something going here with T2W members?

Hi Att,

e5.

Do you know of a better way to do this, e.g. mobile phone? Otherwise this thread could get very long indeed 😆

OK I've just found ww.chess.com which looks like it's free and cross-platform, also found www.freechess.org which is free, but I'm not sure if it is cross-platform. Anyone have experience of these?

There is probably an app to show the positions graphically.
I had a quick look but couldn't find one.
Haven't played a game for 40 years.
But I do play poker on Poker Stars a bit.

The chess problem is really simple - 2 seconds to solve it. White to move.
