Board game apparatus and method of playing the same

A board apparatus comprising:

• a rectangular board having a top and bottom surface, wherein the top surface includes horizontal and vertical rows of grooves;
• a plurality of chips including a protrusion configured to fit in the grooves, wherein the chips are configured to move in the grooves via the protrusion and in directions determined by the grooves;
• and
• a plurality of legs located at a distance apart attached to the bottom surface and configured to support the board on a flat surface in a horizontal position;
• wherein the plurality of legs is configured to make the board movable between the horizontal position and a number of tilted positions defined by the plurality of legs, and the board in each tilted position allows chips to slide on the board due to force of gravity;
• wherein the plurality of legs defines four tilted positions, the board has four sides and is configured to move to each tilted position by applying force to or lifting a corresponding side of the four sides, and, in each tilted position, the board contacts the flat surface;
• wherein the plurality of legs comprises four legs, one leg positioned directly under each corner of the board, each leg of the plurality having a curvature that defines one of the tilted positions, and includes:
• a first region to support the board on the flat surface in the horizontal position;
• a second region to support the board in the tilted position;
• and
• wherein the curvature extends upwards from the first region to the second region;
• wherein the top surface is formed without a hole that allows chips on the board to fall toward the flat surface or into the stand.
