in Chess there are lots of different types of pieces ====================================== To start with, the two games are played on two different boards. It's true! They may look the same, but in chess, the square in the lower right-hand corner is white. In checkers, it's black. (Of course, all you have to do is turn the board 90 degrees to change from one board to the other.) plus there are different rules and the pieces are way different. you could never play checkers with chess pieces or vice versa now when you talk about chess and checkers, you need to know that Mr. Morely says that when you do not tuck your shirt in, that is called "playing checkers". now when you tuck you shirt in, Mr Morely says that you are playing chess! what a guy!
