“ I came to play and meet people. How does anyone meet and SOCIALIZE with anyone when everyone is deeply involved in playing chess. How does anyone concentrate on the game and hold a socialable conversation at once? I truly got the impression that people go there to play chess and not socialize. What a bummer. I travel 45 minutes just to play chess and NOT MEET anyone. To make matters more undesirable, I was harrassed into paying $40 an hour to take some chess lessons (from "Lev") that I never wanted. The club and the experience was a total bummer. ” -
