TL;DR: Upgrade your chess game with the GoChess Mini smart board and storage bag for $249.99 with code CHESS.

Tired of being humbled by 12-year-olds in online chess tournaments? Meet your new secret weapon: the GoChess Mini Smart Chess Board. It's compact, portable, and packed with clever features to boost your brainpower without making you feel like you're studying for a midterm — plus, it's on sale for $50 off when you enter code CHESS at checkout.

This chessboard connects to your phone via Bluetooth or Wi-Fi, so you can play online, practice against the AI, or sharpen your skills with real-time LED guidance that actually shows you which moves are smart—and which are not-so-smart.

With 32 levels of adjustable AI difficulty, you can start small and build your way up to genius-level thinking (or just pretend you're there). It works seamlessly with Chess.com and Lichess, and comes with one month of Chess.com Diamond access, so you can flex your newfound skills with premium perks. The LED-lit board even flags illegal moves and shows potential plays in real time, so you don't need to second-guess your next step.

As a handy bonus, the included storage bag keeps your board and pieces organized and protected, so you can throw it in your backpack and bring it to the park, a friend's house, or wherever your next tournament awaits.

Bring your chess game from rookie to ruthless by using promo code CHESS at checkout when you purchase the GoChess Mini Smart Chess Board and storage bag bundle for $249.99 (reg. $299.99).
