A natural way to answer

I'd say chess. No matter how much I practise, I always lose. I struggle to plan ahead, so my opponents usually see my moves coming.

Key phrases to use

  • get my head round — to manage to understand something difficult or confusing“I just can't get my head round these rules.”
  • wipes the floor with me — beats someone very easily and completely“My little sister wipes the floor with me at every video game.”
