try your chess skills for bitcoin

[patt0]

I cant access the site. the site say account supended. I think the site is no longer active.Anyone guys do you have any known site that has a chess for bitcoin?

I don't think any site like that will ever exist. I mean why do you even want to play chess for btc?
You beat you opponent in a game that requires "intelligence" (there are many types of intelligence so don't really like using this word here, but I don't remember anything else lol) and skill, so why do you want to earn coins on top of that?

Besides even if you needed the coin factor to play chess and get "happy" about it, this will never work online as players will just cheat and use software to beat you.

your logic sounds weird.

so by going to your way of logic, apply to sport (and change a few words),
'I don't think any site like that will ever exist. I mean why do you even want to play sport for btc?
You beat you opponent in a game that requires "skills" and stragety, so why do you want to earn coins on top of that?'

people bets on these sport all because of the belief in their skills! so why cant people bets on their belief in intelligent. just like football/ruby, it is really a game of intelligent/stragety.

[lorylore]

but of course, i have to say that if btc/$$ is involved, a lot of ppl will just download the best software n use those to win. not all software r the best, but some chess has the best software created like checkers or so. so if you use the best software, it is almost a win for you.

also chess may have still mate so it could also end in a draw in which some betting site dont like that.

Yeah you can go ahead and give it a try but simply playing chess won't help you beating the bots in the game .The games are of high difficulty and its not easy for an average chess player to beat the algorithms .You should atleast be a medium to high level chess player to win this game .Not to forget but you're betting your money in it so might as well be cautious : p

[wearepoor]

I don't think that its a good idea to play chess to earn bitcoins. It will be really difficult to beat the BOT and I don't think that people will use their bitcoins to play chess. IF they wants to play chess then there are so many sites available where you can play and there is no need to pay bitcoins or other type of money.

ya beating the bot would be hard, but how cool would it be if you could play another human in a chess match online and put btc on the line

[dothebeats]

Online chess? I could make a lot of bitcoins here given that there are a lot of softwares dedicated on playing chess. Hard to tell whether your opponent is cheating or not.

Yes, this will be superb, Those who wants to feel the real excitement of this game and also wants to earn some money can go for such betting. Playing with bot and playing with human will be different things and it will attract more people.

i would also support this. i woudnlt call myself extremely good at chess. but the idea that your win chance depends on your skill is really cool. looking forward to seeing someone develop this.

Well, this thread is proof of one such attempt, and if you try visiting the site, you will see the result - it's already offline.

The problem is, there is no way to tell whether or not someone is cheating in online chess; so, why would anyone want to bet their BTC in a match against (potentially) a bot? In fact, if you read the vast majority of the replies to this thread, that's exactly what is consistently pointed out: "it's a nice idea, but there is no way to make it work" (not for chess, anyway).

Yep, if you want to play chess for money, just go to a park and challenge someone out there.
Don't know if it is illegal though xD

Well same problem with all online chess games.
How will you make sure that the human player will not just use a chess program to simulate his moves?
I mean you make a move, I put in the chess program and the computer makes the move, and I copy that move to your game. How can you stop that from happening?

(I'm afaid you can't, so don't do a chess game with bitcoins :/)

[quadriple7]

play chess for bitcoins, better then betting
chess4coin.com

that is awesome idea, finally good sport where you need to think and not just hope for best, for bitcoins too

just wouldn't bots be a huge problem?  i mean someone could create bot and always win  bitcoins, and it would be really hard to beat bot, so many people would leave game

[Iseecookies]

Backgammon had the same issue,it was to easy for people to just set up bots and play the edges to make a profit.
Its to bad I would love to play chess for bitcoin as well.

How would you structure that kind of game? If you set it up for human vs computer, you cannot force it to make the moves you want it to make, because the computer makes the moves for you. I have a chess game on my phone, and I cannot tell it what moves it must make or plan strategies in advance for it. I am not saying it is not possible, because there are many different Chess Apps out there. If someone found a anti-cheat for a concept like this, it might just work. ^smile^

It is not possible to find anti cheat for playing Chess over the internet. The mere nature of the game allows it to be exploited in online environment very easily.
And if money will be at stake here then there is no doubt we will have many cheaters playing. Just stick to the Chess as not hazard game and it will be fine.

You don't need to force the computer program to make any move whatsoever - like he said, you just need to start the chess program, take the position of the other player on your phone app (that is, you copy the other player's moves to the app), let the computer make its move, then copy the move the computer made to the site.

In case you want to cheat mid-game, however, then you do have to use a chess program that lets you configure the starting positions - but that's about it, and shouldn't be too hard to find, I think.
