Play online chess |  Subject: Rated 1750 or Above? JOIN A TOP 10 TEAM
Message:
We are looking for two or three players rated 1750 or above. After four months as a team we are top 5 by rating and top 20 by team points. The team is democratic. You get as many or as few games as you like. Matches are quite fair (rarely more than a 20-point difference in rating). You must be strong within your rating. We don't want just anyone (a strong 900 brings more to a team than a weak 2100), but if you fit the bill, we want you. Send me a message.
Matt

Chess: Making the crazy move — Black's defensive options look limited – but the trick is to shock the opponent. RB: Continuing our series of What's the Correct Defence? I puzzled over this for a long, long time before conceding defeat. Had I been playing Black here, the fight would have gone out of me and I would already have mentally resigned. I don't see how Black can escape the unpleasantness that is bound to follow White's obvious next move – 1 Nc3. The boot remains on the other foot this week, so over to Dan. DK: This looks miserable: White's central pawns dominate and the pin on the b-file is really uncomfortable. OK, down to business. First, I need to establish just how bad things are. What's ...

Giri Smashes Carlsen, but Nakamura Leads Tata Steel Chess Tournament — Round 3 of the Tata Steel chess tournament in the Netherlands produced a shocking result as Magnus Carlsen of Norway, the world’s top-ranked chess player, lost in 22 moves to Anish Giri, a 16-year-old Dutch grandmaster. Carlsen had White. Carlsen played very oddly and soon had a difficult position. He then blundered and resigned a few moves later. Afterward, he posted a message on his Twitter account: “Always nice to confirm that I’m still capable of blundering a piece in one move!” Giri now has 2 points and is tied for second with Viswanathan Anand of India, the world chess champion, and Ian Nepomniachtchi of Russia. They all trail Hikaru Nakamura of the United States, who ...

Four Lead Tata Steel Chess Tournament — After an exciting start Saturday in the elite section of the Tata Steel chess tournament in the Netherlands, Round 2 on Sunday was much tamer. Only one of the seven games was decisive — a victory by Ian Nepomniachtchi of Russia over Wang Hao of China — and it was not even the most interesting game of the round. That distinction went to a wild dual between Anish Giri and Jan Smeets, two Dutch grandmasters, whose game ended in a draw. The most eagerly anticipated game was undoubtedly between Viswanathan Anand of India, the world chess champion, and Vladimir Kramnik of Russia, his predecessor. Anand brilliantly beat Kramnik in a 2008 title match and ...
