Chess isn’t actually a logic game or a smarts game, it’s a memory game. If you’re a computer or one of those 15-people-per-generation chess brains, then yeah, you probably can logic your way into thinking enough moves ahead. If not, your only option is to remember a bunch of different plays and learn how to recognise and execute the preditermined strategies. If you try to do it your way, you will be stuck losing to a bad computer or chess club kids online
Comment on I mean does anybody really know how to play Chess?

I “know” how to play chess but when I try to play against a computer I constantly get reminded I can’t move my piece there because I would be putting myself in check.
Pretty sure I’ve only won 2 chess games in my life. … Against someone at my level.
