Depends on how long a game, and how hard he thinks, and how excited he/she gets.
A 180 lb man uses around 40-50 calories in an hour of chess-playing-like activities.

well depends if the two people are evenly matched then both will have to think a lot. on a daily basis the brai burns about 20-30% of your calorie intake so assuming the two players are evenly matched there will be a lot of thinking going on so that would mean the brain would burn a lot of calories. So I would say they would increase their daily calorie burn to 40-50%, which is proabably more than you expected. So they would burn 20-30% more

During each turn, they gain and lose whatever the weight of the chess piece is, as they pick it up, move it and put it down.

Not much; if even a pound. Probably a gram or 2.

At about 1.25 calories per minute, any lost weight would be not enough to worry about.
