Re: 2013 RA Club Championship

So what conditions did you give Aman for playing? If nada that's admirable that he's playing - I mean free lessons to 3 A players.

Aman is an incredibly nice young man. He is even helping me teach some kids this week.

The lad simply "gets it" 30 years earlier than old geezers like me, lol. See you Saturday?!

[Aris Marghetis]

Aris needs bye for Round 6

Hi Halldor, sorry, but I am now working tomorrow evening, so please give me a bye for it.

I believe there is one more round after that, so please pair me for it. Sorry for late notice.

Re: 2013 RA Club Championship

Maybe you'll get to play Harmony Zhu.:)I'm a fan of hers. Anyways, should be a good tournament. (and maybe I'll get to play Aman but not the way Ive been playing lately

Re: 2013 RA Club Championship

Here is Aman at work last Thursday. He was playing Stijn DeKerpel. Bob Gelblum is watching and Mike Abt is deep in thought playing next to them.

Re: 2013 RA Club Championship

Good photo. Is 2013 the year that Ottawa gets its first resident GM? (although being a chess history buff my preferences lie with Dr. Bohatirchuk, who was denied by the Soviets) Anyways first GM for the chess community is quite the accomplishment.

Absolutely.
