It was a pleasure to work with him. The Tal Memorial, which ends Saturday, is called the "tournament of stars." By coincidence, the Soviets insisted on the same name 30 years ago for the tournament I organized in Montreal. It was ... A Bad Night at the Board -- “Nobody told me there would be days like these, strange days indeed.” (John Lennon) Hikaru Nakamura is the reigning United States chess champion and ranked No. 24 in the world. He is one of the best chess players the United States has ever produced. As good as he is, it has probably been a very long time, if ever, since he played a game like the one he was involved in on Wednesday night. Nakamura was playing in the quarterfinals of the United States Chess League for the Seattle Sluggers and his team faced the Miami Sharks, who are led by Julio Becerra. Becerra is unquestionably a good chess player. He is a grandmaster and he is ranked No. 477 in the world among ... | |
