It is funny how we consider being good at Chess a sign of general intelligence. "This guy is good at a board game, he must have great insights into politics"
Maybe it was in an earlier era, but at this point it's pretty well established that to be a top chess guy you basically have to forsake all other mental tasks.
Nah, Bobby Fisher and Kasparov fully disabused that notion to anyone who was paying attention.
Many such cases
