Talking Chess with Joel Benjamin
He has made the U.S. Championship an annual stop for over two decades. The format of the audio column is mp3. Check out Fred's interview of the articulate American grandmaster Joel Benjamin in his latest Fred Wilson Talks Chess column.

Emotional Momentum
You have an advantage, but you then fail to adjust your perspective when the advantage either disappears or changes. What just happened? In his latest column, Nigel Davies suggests it might be worthwhile to examine this phenomenon. So, Let's Take A Look...

The Prelude
Pre-match, jockeying, negotiating, give-and-take. Appearance fees, prize funds, time controls, and other relevant aspects were debated, discussed and eventually agreed upon. Are we following one of the great Ks as they prepare to take center stage again? Maybe not.

Demonstration Boards
We have had a lot of inquiries about demonstration boards. We will soon have no less than three kinds of demo boards available: The Basic:  An inexpensive "slotted" demo board in the $40 range; The Deluxe: A high-end magnetic board that folds into its custom case in the $100 range; and The Superior: A mid-range offering priced in the $60 range. The Superior Demo Board in fact is now available.

Order Online - And Save!
We want to encourage you to use the online catalog, so orders of $100 or more (excluding shipping) placed online will receive $5.00 off. We save when you order and now so will you.

Play well...
