Chess Daily News from Susan Polgar
Nice comeback by Kamsky.
$1800 for first prize? Does that even cover the plane fair?
They probably got ‘conditions’ as well, meaning their expenses, were covered, if they were top players.
Good to see that GM Mark Paragua is playing tournament chess again after a long layoff. He can be a strong addition to the Philippine team.
thats why poker is crushing chess
And we didn’t have to bring chess sets!!!Not a lot of people…they advertised more prizes …less people,less $ 🙁
