Who knew he played chess (and at the Master level)?
- zck 16y agoYou didn't know Kasparov played chess? Seriously, though, from what I can tell, Thiel is rated 2199[1], which isn't Master level. That's still enough to be the 21,246th best player in the world. [1] http://ratings.fide.com/card.phtml?event=2022389 http://ratings.fide.com/card.phtml?event=2022389
