[Old Crank]

I never did a proper pawn sacrifice....

I not smart enough.

3. I once played a Russian Grand Master

Not even one of the better known ones.

he played about 20 games simultaneously against the chess club I belonged to.

19-0-1 . I was the tie. I knew right then that I was NOT going to be the next Bobby Fisher.

Lost interest in the game not too long after that.

[Different Drummer]

4. FWIW...

I am better at chess than I am at bridge.

[Old Crank]

5. Had some friends

Try to teach us bridge. Just way to complicated for a social game. Pinochle is about my speed for a pairs card game.

6. Sacrificing the pawns is how you keep the bishops, the knights, the queens, and the kings in power.

It's been that way throughout history.

7. I always wanted to get a 3D chess board like the one in Star Trek.

The rules were invented after the prop first showed up in an episode of the original series.
