Come this Wednesday to see Woman National Master Yelizaveta Orlova play more than one person at once! Liza's record is playing 20 boards at once. Will you be able to beat her? Find out this Wednesday @ 7PM. Liza loves playing people of all ages and levels. The simultaneous exhibition will run for about one hour. There is no extra cost for this event. Just the casual or tournament fee. There will be 10-12 boards set up which means up to 12 people can play with her at the sametime.
Tournament starts at 7:45 PM.
Casual Play anytime between 7 - 10:30 PM.
Females play FREE.
Feel free to ask the organizers for some tips during your casual games!

- Learn and play chess in a social atmosphere. Pub Chess Toronto's founders are top players in the country.
- We hold teaching sessions/lectures + casual/competitive play. Currently, we are re-located at "The Madison", which is in the heart of Annex and 2 mins walk from Spadina station. Our past location was "The Central", Markham & Bloor.
- The point of our meet up is to popularize chess. Chess is known to be a very sophisticated game but we want to show the social and fun aspect of it! Come out, drink/eat, meet new people over the chess board!
-If you are not sure whether you can or can't make it, please list "maybe" or "interested", it helps us to raise popularity in the event/club.
