Bodie was pretty much dead, he even admitted he was a pawn and resigned to that fate, metaphorically speaking being captured or killed...

To go even bigger, a pawn can only move forward and can't even launch a powerful attack in comparison to the other pieces
.."Take orders and keep the count"

He was expendable and on the otherside, so was McNulty...

Above the fray.
Bodie was talking about himself, but the comment within the show's context is about Slim Charles who started out a soldier for Avon and moved up to boss because he made the right moves and stayed out the way when necessary
In the context of chess...........soldiers would be knights, not pawns.

Knights=Muscle..goons.....hitters

Pawns= hand to hand dealers...lookouts.
Yes but per the shows rule they all soldiers on the field. Pawns are by definition soldiers. Cadets. LT. General. King. But All of them soldiers.

Hand to hand drug dealers and corner boys equivalents in them chess days breh? “Oh where art thou spider bags. Holdeth thy square” Lol

I get what ya saying in general but saying pawns arent soldiers when they are by definition (only ones that can rank up too) kinda threw me off

Poot survived and made it out the game. Low Key he won.

Nah high key he won. Poot>>>>

Only person to speak up at String Bell bullshyt lemonade stand 101 seminars, manned up and killed Wallace when superthug Bodie was shaking in his boots, stayed in the mix but knew his role.

Only way he lost was getting gonorrhea :russ:
