Chess keeps you sane:GM Nigel Short in delightful BBC video

Chess blog for latest chess news and chess trivia (c) Alexandra Kosteniuk, 2011

Hi everyone,


A nice chess point made by British Grandmaster Nigel Short is that chess keeps you sane. He said this while talking to the BBC in a delightful video interview and even played a game. Short was discussing this in reference to the Bobby Fischer against the World movie. You can watch the video at this link. Must watch really. The GM says he is still on the path of learning in chess and the game is one of indefinite complexities.

And, while on the subject, you can read a fresh new review with Liz Garbus, the director of Bobby Fischer against the World at this link. Enjoy.
