| Nov 28, 2011 at 18:05 | comment | added | Menachem | @msh210: As I said there in the comments, it is a great place to look up sources, even if you don't agree with his conclusions. His endnotes are extensive and bring many dissenting opinions. Also, if he says it's a problem, he's basing it on something at least one posek said, which is more useful than the naked assertion in the answer given here. | |

| Nov 28, 2011 at 17:41 | comment | added | Menachem | I don't have it in front of me, but Dovid Ribiat, in his books 39 Melachos, brings that chess could be a problem on shabbat because of borer and Uvdin D'chol. If someone has the sefer handy and can look up the sources, that would be great | |
| Nov 28, 2011 at 17:35 | comment | added | avi | Can you change 'many poskim' to 'some poskim' unless you have a source that it is in fact many? | |
| Nov 28, 2011 at 17:16 | comment | added | msh210♦ | Sources would be valuable. | |
