GM Nigel Davies - Chess Mentor Course & Vote Chess

Chess.com is lucky today! We are fortunate to have GM Nigel Davies with us in two amazing new roles!

First off, GM Davies has created a new Chess Mentor course on Understanding the Colle-Zukertort which is an aggressive opening with deadly intentions on the Kingside! He will show you how Grandmasters use the Colle System with excellent results. (There is also an additional collection of Colle games for download here!) Go check it out!

Secondly, GM Davies is going to be playing everyone at Chess.com in a Vote Chess game!!!! That's right - every member of Chess.com gets a chance to vote and try and beat one of the world's top players. Click here to go register for the game starting next week! The rules are that there will be up to 3 days per side for the moves (and perhaps a little more for GM Davies if needed as he is doing this while also playing in many chess events!). That should give everyone plenty of time to discuss and make the best possible moves!

So go enjoy this new Chess Mentor course and the chance to play against a top player in Vote Chess! 

Thank you GM Nigel Davies!!  

P.S. Here is a quick sneak-preview of the Colle-Zukertort!

Yes, I am the guy who started Chess.com (along with Jay, Igor, Piotr, and many others). I have 3 amazing daughters, one wild son, and a wonderful, patient wife! I learned chess when I was 8 years old. Since then I have been playing, studying, and enjoying it regularly. I prefer semi-open and closed positions that blow up tactically (like the Closed Sicilian, King's Indian, Glek etc).
