Open Mic Day at the Demo Chessboard!
Open Mic Day at the Demo Chessboard!
Dear Silverdale Chess Club Players, Families and Friends,
In memoriam and in tribute to Daniel Naroditsky and his personal mission to share his love of chess and his knowledge of chess positions and amazing stories with anyone who could spend a few minutes checking out his Web channel, Speed Chess Run, or Live Stream, let's open the “Mic” and the “Demo Board this Saturday to anyone who would like to contribute a chess demonstration or a favorite chess story
Have a sharp opening gambit you'd like to share? An interesting game you've played or admired? A position or puzzle you felt was fascinating? An endgame study or middle game combination? The Demo Board will welcome your miniature chess lesson, anecdote or miniature chess game when you do a “Mic drop” — Boom!
Here are a few examples:
1.) White to checkmate in two moves
(including getting out of check)
2.) What’s your opinion on the major controversy surrounding the death of beloved Grandmaster, Daniel Naroditsky, and the role, as you see it, of GM chess cheating accuser and tormentor Vladimir Kramnik.
3.) The Noah’s Ark Trap in the Ruy Lopez
4.) Paul Morphy’s Famous Chess Puzzle.
White to checkmate in two moves.
…your Chess Standup remarks here!
The Silverdale Chess Club meets on Saturdays from 2:30-4:30 at Moment Brewing, 10876 Myhre Pl NW Suite 112, Silverdale, WA 98383
