    not enough lectures by the masters that come to the site but the ones that they do have are great. fun, educational and most interesting

    Summary

    i really enjoy playing Fischer random (960 chess) and standard chess/
    Many others like to play Losers chess and Crazy House chess (varients i have not played) but they all enjoy it so some day i may start playing them

    "Great Chess Site for the Whole family"

    March 29, 2009  |   By knightowl1950

    Version: Infinia Chess 7.4b

    Pros

    Interface is very good. Games are easy to get and competition is very good. Masters play makes exciting as well as lectures. All games are saved and can be reviewed for later study. perhaps the best part is the community in the lobby.

    Cons

    Nothing to dislike, except I wish I had more time to play there.

    Summary

    For online chess, this site is exciting, fun and entertaining. After playing 10 yrs online, I have finally found the chess club that is worth telling all my buddies about. With masters playing there, it is more of an educational experience, where lectures explain tactics, openings, endgames, etc. relays of world chess events make it one of the best places to keep track of the leaders in chess. Whatever level your game is at, you can find an opponent, and enjoy a good club atmosphere there. They have my best interests in mind, and the administrators afre alwys there to help the members.

    "Great Interface, Fun Lobby"

    March 28, 2009  |   By vomitcomet

    Version: Infinia Chess 7.4b

    Pros

    Again, the interface is great, not uncommon to see 70+ moves in a 1 minute game at this site...(and its free) Lots of variants also. They also have lots of free lessons with International Masters that are for everyone to attend. The Lobby Room is fun

    Cons

    No bughouse, but thats ok, Crazy House is actually more fun! I see lots of complaints about admins above but my experience has been fine, they do only seem to come down hard on cheaters or people doing stupid things in the lobby....Swearing, etc etc.

    Summary

    A very fun site, better than several pay sites ive been to, and they are always adding stuff.

    "Infinia Chess Is A Great Place for Chess"

    March 17, 2009  |   By anniekate

    Version: Infinia Chess 7.4b

    Pros

    Graphics - Chess Lessons - Great Lectures by titled Players - Infinia's Lobby - and the Professionalism of the site. Nice Administrators - and nice members.

    Cons

    There is nothing I do not like about Infinia Chess

    Summary

    I find this site to be friendly and professional. Infinia Chess has basic rules i.e no cheating, no profanity and no personal attacks. The lobby is a fun place for fun people who like to make friends and play casual or professional chess.

    "Absolutely rubbish and not recommended."

    March 27, 2008  |   By Tiger Bay 77

    Version: Infinia Chess 7.4b

    Pros

    The ability to instant chat and play live games.

    Cons

    I don't like the way infinia is run by trigger happy admins who just can't keep

    their ever itchy fingers away from that damn flippin mute and ban buttons.

    My thoughts more or less echo joylin_sampath's views

    "banning without reason".

    December 3, 2007  |   By Dhawal_Jaiswal

    Version: Infinia Chess 7.4b

    Pros

    Good Peoples

    Cons

    DEADLYPAWN (onwer) and mad4mosa (admin), Management is not good, nor the enviroment, players may going to lose there statistic, since this site is going to become a pay site soon(already announced by owner). Bad chatting area and be ware you might get banned for not good reason and it may distroy your good mood.

    Pros

    a good program
