Play online chess | Just curious ......

What was the reason you left your old team? And why do think that your new team will be different than your old team?
I'm asking these questions because the captain of our team left us as well w/o a valid reason and I'm always suspicious when a captian wants to start a new team. I don't want to be nasty but if you left your old team you can easily leave your new team as well unless you have a valid reason but I know how difficult it is to find a new captain when one leaves.
Anyway good luck with your new team. Eric

Message:
on this new team to join my team. i only ask because your captain has a bad habit of recruiting established players from active teams. why is it the same ole people keep croping up causeing problems. davism if you want the friendliest team on gk as your team description indicates then i suggest you be a leader and start with yourself! recruiting from other teams is not good way to start. but.... thank goodness you asked one of mine because as you found out we are loyal to one another. thankyou , stinky ;)

Viktor Laznicka seals runaway World Open victory — The World Open in Philadelphia has been staged annually since the early 1970s, and although it has never quite justified its grandiose title it is still a huge magnet for chess players from grandmasters to novices. It is a big money event, with high entry fees but first prizes of several thousand dollars even for weaker sections. Its continued success reflects a ruthless policy by the organisers towards rating cheats, coupled with a highly flexible schedule. The final rounds are on Independence Day, but it is possible to compete anywhere between three and seven days and to re-enter if you start badly. For GMs in the top section, it can be a vicious battle. They normally get a minimum ...

Endgames, part 1: Rook against Bishop — A superb lesson from Magnus Carlsen in endgame technique.

Although White has the advantage of rook against bishop, Black has an extra pawn and a solid position on the chess board. How did Carlsen make progress? RB I'm pretty sure the answer lies in g4. The question is whether to nudge the pawn forward immediately or whether some preparation is needed first, perhaps exchanging on d5 or advancing the king to e3. The only way is concrete calculation, so let's see what ...
