Sorry the site was down guys. I had to take it off line as I worked on a serious virus. Hopefully, things will go well now, but , give it a few days to be sure.

Guys, I would really appreciate it if you could email me suggestions for poll questions. There must be something you want to know peoples' opinion on ;)

Hi John, Yah, it was quite a game, I was actually up 3 pawns in the white side of a Gruenfeld, certainly should have won, but Doug outplayed me in time pressure and came up with an amazing windmill/mating net.

Great results for Keith, Matt & Doug and Mike. I'd like to see Doug's Swindle over Bob.

KW doesn't appear to have aged much since I last saw him some years ago. Can you post any games? As I recall, a rather Fischeresque approach, similar to both Bailey and Pushkedra. Say hello tohim for me if you can

It was mistakenly announced in the Club last Friday that the Toronto Open is on Easter weekend. However, it it will be one week after Easter starting Friday April 17.
In previous years it was held on Easter but this year organizers decided to try it on a different date so that there would be less conflict with family events.
