"standard chess rules" say that if the chessclock hits 0, the player who has taken so long to make their move loses. This game does not appear to have a chessclock, so a lot of people seem to just sit there, doing nothing whatsoever, knowing that their opponent will have little option but to leave the game, leaving them as the winner.
So, in short, this game is fundamentally flawed. There are much better multiplayer chess games than this on Kongregate. Why this one keeps coming to the top of my searches, I'll never know.

having your opponents always try to make you raise your bet on your 100 guest coins kinda distracts you from the game. for that, it only gets a 4/5.

The game code that they give is NOT PGN. It's actually the severely outdated Long Algebraic notation that is not compatible with PGN readers (it helps noobs see moves, but besides that, it's inferior). Long Algebraic notation is like this: 1. Pe2e4. PGN is like this: 1. e4. Both describe the exact same move.

I like how this has even the most obscure rules. Most people don't know enpassente or that if you and your opponet do the same moves 3 times in a row it's a tie. So don't complain just because this thing uses even the most obscure rule.
