I've been thinking about running a chess club. If anyone is interested, please let me know.
Johnny's chimmys place in 1294 chackstone ave prov, r.i. 02908 grate quiet resturant my fam ownes it we could do live face to face Tournament like to old days lol
Best place to play, best competetion, best area etc... is at 201 Wayland avenue, Providence RI, Saturdays from 3-8 chess tournament, David Pruess of chess.com himself paid a visit there recently and thats gotta mean something. Chessmaster Connections is located in Wayland sq, Providence RI(east side next to brown U)
NM ilusha is correct about the club in wayland...top players,top conditions but forget about discussing chess without "top bucks"..for the penny pincher there is rochambeau branch of the library every saturday start at 12..free to play..blackstone is great too but again..money. the coffee exchange on thayer is a great place to blitz ( even the owner plays!!) but the schedule is coordinated amongst players..just hit me up an ill start the calls!!
oh, an theres a club on tuesday nights at garden city center. Games start at 7 sharp..
Is there an a place where chess players regularly play in RI? Especially for a newbie (but an oldie) like me?
