Hi Everyone . . . !
This week's evenings are going
to be a bit cooler, just right for enjoyable chess over the boards this
Wednesday evening, June 28, 2017, at Starbucks located at 1536 Kirker Pass Rd.,
Clayton, Calif., from 5:30 p.m. - 9:00 p.m. Come by anytime, the earlier the
better for the better tables, more matches, and some really nice, interesting
company!
Last week's session saw at
least 19 or 20 players enjoy the evening of chess, with no less than a dozen
players going over to Carl's Jr. across the parking lot for even more chess and
conversation after Starbucks closed! Chess Masters Ronald C. and Rich K.
were in the mix, both at Starbucks and Carl's Jr., with Ronald as usual
dazzling players in blitz chess, giving most opponents a full 5 minutes while
taking only 1 minute for himself!
Along with Ronald and Rich for
the evening's fun, challenging chess over the boards were Mike T., Dylan, Bob
C., Kitty, Priya, Reza, Hanza, Nik, Evan, Jim M., J.J., Tony T., Anthony, Ann S.,
Jonathan, Chris B., and John S. . . . and we couldn't help notice the huge
improvement over time in Kitty's game, and Dylan's game as well, with extra
congratulations to Dylan for having just graduated from high school and for
soon being on his way to UC Santa Barbara, while steady chess gamer Evan begins
his senior year at Purdue also this fall!
So then, see you again this
Wednesday evening, and if you haven't been by in a while, or if this could be
your first time, come on, get your game up whether you're a beginner or
otherwise, renew old friendships, and make new ones!
