Explanation:

1. We need a comma before the coordinating conjunction "but" to separate two independent clauses: "Andre and Chuck played chess together every day" and "after fifteen years, Andre had only won once".
2. Options B omits the required comma, option C leaves the contrasting relationship unstated, and option D does not connect the two clauses logically.

Answer:

A. day, but
