SCC Chess Club presents: School of Rook part II! On Wednesday November 1 from 6-8 p.m. we will be looking at the game Taimanov - Geller, featured in David Bronstein's classic book, Zurich International Chess Tournament 1953. This will be a collaborative study session: you are encouraged to examine the game in advance and come to the meeting with your observations, analysis, insights, and questions. (If you don't have time to look over the game, that's okay -- come anyway!) After we've gone over the game as a group, we will have sparring sessions starting from key positions in Taimanov - Geller. Strong players are encouraged to attend and lend their expertise to the group. However, all chess players are welcome to attend, regardless of playing level or SCC affiliation.
