I was almost annoyed hearing that Putin plays chess and Obama or other leaders of the free world they play checkers. I thought I had to defend the integrity of my game because chess is not a game for dictators for numerous reasons. One, it's transparent. It's all information hundred percent available so you know exactly what you have, you know exactly what your opponent has. You don't know what he or she is thinking, but you definitely know what kind of resources your opponent can use to hurt you, to damage your position.
