Have you ever played chess, with a chess clock?

I never have, did it make the game faster, more challenging?

Yep, and the clock beat me 4 out of 5 times! ;)

I tried it once, and then immediately stopped that, because I didn’t like it.

Nope. I’m bad enough at chess as it is. I don’t need extra pressure.

My chess playing abilities are NOT at the level where I warrant a clock, so…nope, never have!!!

I’m not good at chess, but I do play. Not with the clock but more like a sundial. I’m so slow trying to plan several moves ahead and anticipate what my opponent will do to counter is tough. I’ll castle in a heartbeat if I need to and trade queens so watch out! ;)

Never, 60 years ago I played with friends and played at a Psychiatric Hospital; when I was a Psych aide, with patients.

Yes, once at a music festival. I got beat within 5 minutes. But I suck at Chess.

Never any physical clock, but hundreds of online ones that were timed.
