the game went on for another few moves before I resigned. I stopped notating because I was under 5 minutes.

Comment on Caro-Kann Advance, continuing the theme by Greg Keener

One thing I like about this topalov anand game, is that topalov is still producing a mate threat in a lost ending. Naturally, Anand responds and brings the knight into the correct “circuit” to defend, but still, what fighting spirit! Say what you will about his personally and professionally, his a clever attacker.

True, but anything is better than nothing!

However, I think you should ping Rocketboom and let them know that the next time they think about doing a piece on chess in NYC, they should hit something other than the obvious.

Comment on new chess spot in greenpoint by Greg Keener

Well the espresso is better at “varieties”, and also the only chess scene at champ is me, mark, and once upon a time you, so the scene there is better too. But the seating is better at champ i suppose. The player is strength is varied. I haven’t played enough to know for sure, but the hardest game a played was against the barista, Cameron, in which I won a rook and pawn ending which was probably at one point drawn. I told the people there about the blog, and mentioned matchless, but didn’t really recommend it because they were quite strong actually, in comparison to the matchless crowd.

Nice! Is it better than Champ or just different? What’s the player strength? Are they aware of Tuesday nights at Matchless?

Kind of disappointing they only talk about the chess shop. There are so many places! The marshall, the chess forum, that place on flatbush, that place in park slope, all the parks and meetups and the polgar sisters shop in queens…

in any case…nice find barke. I thought you quit!
