ICC launches pay-per-view video service
The Internet Chess Club (ICC) has begun offering brand-new instructional videos to the general public. The videos cover mainly opening play and we're told videos can be bought for as low as $0.99 cents each. Seems very reasonable.According to sources at ICC, their plan is to offer quality instructional videos to everyone on the net, yes, everyone, because the videos are brand-new and not linked to ICC membership. They currently have uploaded a four-video series on the King's Gambit, and have about 100 other videos they intend to upload in coming weeks. The site is in beta, but fully functional. Here's a preview on the King's Gambit series:Links
Peter Doggers joined a chess club a month before turning 15 and still plays for it. He used to be an active tournament player and holds two IM norms. Peter has a Master of Arts degree in Dutch Language & Literature. He briefly worked at New in Chess, then as a Dutch teacher and then in a project for improving safety and security in Amsterdam schools. Between 2007 and 2013 Peter was running ChessVibes, a major source for chess news and videos acquired by Chess.com in October 2013. As our Director News & Events, Peter writes many of our news reports. In the summer of 2022, The Guardian’s Leonard Barden described him as “widely regarded as the world’s best chess journalist.”
Peter's first book The Chess Revolution is out now!
