This scene is the reason why D is one of my favorite characters in this show. He's basically like a manager of the pit, but hes got good morals for the most part. I also like the scene where he comes down to the pit and sees them doing hand offs and tells them to change up the strategy cuz police be takin pictures yo!
Know what's ironic, every 'King' on the show never stayed the King, they were all replaced. Avon was replaced, Marlo was replaced, the mayor, the police commisioner, Frank Sobotka hell even Omar was replaced.
What he means is that the poor and lower middles classes *CAN* end up becoming something great; for example, a CEO or a vice president of a corporation. But, most pawns 'get capped quick' and are 'out of the game early.' They fuck up, or are simply a product of a violent environment or end up modeling the behavior of those around them. They end up simply becoming what their father, mother, or friends ended up becoming--hence repeating the cycle and never breaking our of their socioeconomic class
@PharodWormhair I'm gonnna have to agree with bluehero. I see how you can take it that way - a metaphor for capitalism. But I think he's really just providing the general metaphor for the game they're involved in. They even lay it out for us a little too blatantly when they compare avon to the king and stringer to the queen, and that you have to be a smart pawn to get all the way to the top (unlike poot, wee-bay, etc).Bodie did get farther but in the end, he was killed off like a pawn
D is explaining how the King will always stay the king, but the pawns have an opportunity to advance--albeit a slim one. Now think about capitalism--especially as it applies to America. The poor and middle classes generally stay poor and end up being wage slaves. However, if they try really hard (go to college, take out student loans, rise above their impoverished environment etc), they can eventually make it to the 'end of the chess board,' becoming the 'queen.'
@1080portal It's a metaphor. In a capitalistic society, the rich 1% will always stay rich and the poor will always stay poor. Income inequality, broseph; it's not as shallow as you're implying.
@PharodWormhair Or its a metaphor for(surprise surprise) life on the streets. I'm not retarded, I just think you are a moron with a soapbox, and therefore you look to everything you see for validation of your own worldview.
Don't reply btw, I'm really not up to having an argument over something this pathetic.
i love how D just looks at them, realizes he's talking about them and has to add "in the game." And of course Bodie realizing the same gives him a reply saying that that's not what's going to happen to him.
Hey man, For shit chucking gang banging apes, give them credit. I mean they could have just gotten into an argument, and shot each other over it. Would not have been a shocker.

Anyone who is a fan of The Wire has GOT to watch the documentary on YouTube called Crack House. It is fascinating. It's like watching the first series, but with real people!
@BaubleRob and after watching some your videos,you're a loser.i wouldn't go around insulting something you can't understand when you make youtube videos.
such an amazing scene I have just been recently watching this show on dvd and i have seen the first two seasons so far. like the first season better than the second but 2nd still great. have yet to see season 3 4 5. without spoiling any plot lines can someone tell me if those are as good as the first season. cause season one is amazing and this chess scene is probably the best scene of the seris. that and the chicken nugget scene
@MegaBabygirl30 THE ONLY PERSON THAT COULD GET MICHEAL WAS OMAR..MICHEAL WOULD HAVE GOT OUT OF THAT SITUATION THAT BODIE WAS IN..THE WAY BODIE GOT KILLED THAT WOULD HAVE NEVER HAPPEN TO MICHEAL
You know who died exactly like a Pawn. He couldn't turn back and run, he had to stand his ground and fight, he even shoots at Chris and Snoop diagonally from where he's standing, not to mention both of them are attacking like Bishops, and finally O-Dog steps forward out of the doorway, then walks straight to him and kills him, like a Knight's L shape attack. And of course Marlo, the King, is nowhere to be seen, he stays out of the battles. A great callback to season 1's chess scene.
@Tanker940 lol how many youtube videos are you going to post this on. we get it, it was a good analogy. i'm willing to bet you ripped it from someone else anyways.
@Tanker940 I'd say you're right, except I think that Chris is the Queen. Just like Stringer, he makes all the moves for the King. He can still attack diagonally of course.
WOW WilliamBybelPedo4 (JasonRepa) I've noticed that youtube has suspended 18 of your accounts. I've also noticed that when one of your familiar foes comes along that know all about you Mr Repa, you panic..hahaha lmao!
Nobody takes your word seriously, nobody. Thats why 18 of your accounts have all been suspended. Keep trolling
William Bybel is a convicted child rapist currently serving out the rest of his sentence via houst arrest. He is the imbecile who has been spamming many chess related videoss lately.
Listen up little man.....Everything you are posting is getting flagged as spam before anyone reads a single word. Stop begging for attention. Take your medication and follow your parole instructions or else you will be put back in jail.
Everyone can easily check for themself. Take a look at the profile page of the following accounts: paradox844, jason52748, ryankev1994, tvcatz, meganz1993, mindyandsara, Chelle427, cuteme77027, and logicada. Every single one of these accounts was opened late August of 2008 and is doing nothing but spamming the Bobby Fischer related videos with threats and harassment towards the same target individual.
It's hard to understand why someone who has a profile that says: "im 15 and live in illinois...i am in 9th grade and play volleyball and softball." (bybel's meganz1993 account) would have no other interest on YouTube except to machine-gun spam a bobby fischer video with harassment against a single individual. This is of course, until you figure out that the real person behind that account (and all the others) is an obese convicted child rapist named William Bybel.
@kevin90210 i happen to ook down and see your comment...actually you're the loser...surrender speech? smh he you kicked someones ass in e debate on youtube...yea HES the loser
thats what i mean man. i mean i looked at the comments to see how others felt about this great scene and i see this bull shit. and i keep seeing for the next 20 pages.
ok, the comments on all wire videos are usually great, and they are on this video. Then in the last 6 days, theres been 27 pages of comments that are just bullshit. This scene was great, dont pull some stupid crap on this video.
@buttonIane cool story bro... thats why there are three thumbs up on your post on every damn post and three accounts that keep postin on this video. get a life man.
really? whoever posted the past 15-20 pages are tools. absolutely no comments on the video. all you guys just spamming on some bullshit. just shut the fuck up and you goin to post anything post something about the video. just making mad accounts just to get the highest rated comments. get a life
@jason52748 ATTENTION EVERYONE.......The guy who has been spamming all of the chess-related discussion threads of an obese loser from Pennsylvania named WILLIAM BYBEL who has failed at trying to become a good chess player and has also failed at every other aspect of life. He receives a disability check every month from the government.
He has no friends and no life whatsoever, so he spends his days harassing people on the internet, especially those who can play chess.
I've pushed you to the point of TOTAL COLLAPSE!! Your panties are now so tied up in knots that you're not even trying to pretend that your "buttonlane", "TomBarristerX" and "Captain21X" accounts are different people. You now post from all three accounts at the same time shamelessly.
Pretty soon you'll die of a heart attack. It will give me great pleasure to realize that I'm the one who pushed you over the edge and 6 feet under, where you belong!

@jason52748 William Bybel, who goes by about 60 or so different fake names on YouTube, including TomBarristerX, CaptainX, BUTTonlane, toughBUTTfair, hilmBUMboy, and many others, is also a homosexual who was molested by his stepfather over the course of about five years. It is for this reason that many people believe that he stalks men on the internet. He has not come to terms with his homosexuality and tries to get the attention of random men by harassing them in online discussion threads.

I'm quite disappointed, to say the very least. You're giving up and giving in like the weak little coward I've said you are. Whilst I AM THE MASTER & RULER OF THE WORLD!! BUTTonlane boy can't post as fast as me. Try if he dare. I am the posting champion. I wee in your brain and then it shrinks. I am the champion.
@kevin90210ful Yes your right about Buttonlane.. Whilst I AM THE MASTER & RULER OF THE WORLD!! Me and you Kev are the kings. BUTTonlane boy can't post as fast as me. Try if he dare. I am the posting champion. I wee in your brain and then it shrinks. I am the champion. Despite the fact that you're afraid of your own shadow and too scared to leave the rooming house you live in, we do know a few things about you, William Bybel.I am posting this everywhere ;)
Despite the fact that you're afraid of your own shadow and too scared to leave the rooming house you live in, we do know a few things about you, William Bybel. For starters, we know you're a victim of anal rape which ocurred when you were living with your stepfather. We also know you're a chronic liar who jerks off to pictures of Bobby Fischer and tries to impress people by telling them that you met Fischer when we all know you didn't. You're not even a real chess player
ATTENTION EVERYONE.......Don't google Jason Repa... please don't
....The cowardly idiot who hides behind the fake name "TomBarristerX goes round trolling. He is a lieing homo retard who also? goes under the name of CaptainX, BUTTonlane, toughBUTTfair, hilmBUMboy.

Don't google Repa even though he is a chess good player...HE IS NOT PEDOPHILE. Don't google You will be falling into butmans trap. He is a low IQ cretin retard
@TheSolipsist21 It's captain21x, cum face. You can't even get the name right, and no I'm not any of the others. A lot of people hate your wasted gay ass. Deal with it
Poor little baby Jasey. Can't handle the heat? You like to dish it out, but you can't take it.
@others you know you're getting to this llama when he uses his many names to spam flag your comments.
Censor this, menstruation machine. It will be back again and again. You can't do a thing about it.
You can't post as fast as me.. I am not gay. No one can touch me or get near my IQ except for Jason Repa, who is a good chess player. Don't believe what people say about him. He doesn't molest children. If you google him you will show your low IQ and you will be falling into BUTboys Low IQ retard trap.

You know who died exactly like a Pawn. He couldn't turn back and run, he had to stand his ground and fight, he even shoots at Chris and Snoop diagonally from where he's standing, not to mention both of them are attacking like Bishops, and finally O-Dog steps forward out of the doorway, then walks straight to him and kills him, like a Knight's L shape attack. And of course Marlo, the King, is nowhere to be seen, he stays out of the battles. A great callback to season 1's chess scene.

It's hard to understand why someone who has a profile that says: "im 15 and live in illinois...i am in 9th grade and play volleyball and softball." (bybel's meganz1993 account) would have no other interest on YouTube except to machine-gun spam a bobby fischer video with harassment against a single individual. This is of course, until you figure out that the real person behind that account (and all the others) is an obese convicted child rapist named William Bybel.

@jason52748 William Bybel, who goes by about 60 or so different fake names on YouTube, including TomBarristerX, CaptainX, BUTTonlane, toughBUTTfair, hilmBUMboy, and many others, is also a homosexual who was molested by his stepfather over the course of about five years. It is for this reason that many people believe that he stalks men on the internet. He has not come to terms with his homosexuality and tries to get the attention of random men by harassing them in online discussion threads.
