Do smart people play chess?
You don't have to be of significantly high intelligence to "play" chess but obviously, if you're looking to advance into the 2200+ club, possessing less than a 120 IQ would probably begin to pose you serious, serious challenges. A lot of these GM's are floating in the 130-160 range, like that or not.

How often should you play chess?
I will say that for long term improvement, you should be playing slower games than just half an hour. I know NM Dan Heisman, who is a renowned chess coach for class level players, recommends playing with a time control of at least an hour, roughly 100 games per year, for serious improvement.
