The 7 Best Upcoming Chess.com Events
Chess fans have a lot to look forward to at Chess.com.
If you like big-time chess events, you're going to love this spring.
Yesterday, a charity fundraising simul hosted by world-number-nine GM Anish Giri online on Chess.com's live server raised over $4,100 for the Nepal earthquake relief effort. But that was just the beginning of our spring event schedule.
Check out the best seven upcoming Chess.com events.
Let us know which event you're most excited about in the comments or on Facebook.

2.
What: Bullet Brawls
When: Wednesdays — next on May 13

When: Sunday, May 31, 5 pm PDT, 8 pm EDT.

IM Daniel Rensch is upping the ante big-time for his next daily puzzle challenge.
He barely missed solving seven puzzles in seven minutes last time...
