Tony's chess blog: Next Stop - Orlando, FL for the US Open
http://tonyschessblog.blogspot.com/2014/07/next-stop-orlando-fl-for-us-open.html
This is a chess blog to document my quest to reach the Expert level rating. Saturday, July 26, 2014. Next Stop - Orlando, FL for the US Open. The month long tournament that I directed and played in went pretty horribly as a player. I scored only 1 out of 3 (0-1-2), despite the fact that I had winning positions in ALL 3 GAMES. It's going to be a very busy week, so dont expect to see any updates until I get back. Wish me luck! July 26, 2014 at 9:09 PM. Was the tournament just for fun, or uscf rated?

Tony's chess blog: September 2014
http://tonyschessblog.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
This is a chess blog to document my quest to reach the Expert level rating. Sunday, September 14, 2014. Here are some of my US Open games from Florida. I missed rounds 1 and 2 as I couldn't afford to play in the 9 day schedule. I asked for a 0 point bye in round 1 and a half point bye in round 2. I showed up to round 3 to see I was paired with as 1/2. By round 6 they had fixed it. I guess in the end it didn't matter. Round 8 was my fastest game. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Tony's chess blog: Chess Future
http://tonyschessblog.blogspot.com/2014/12/chess-future.html
This is a chess blog to document my quest to reach the Expert level rating. Friday, December 19, 2014. Well, another year comes and goes and still I haven't improved enough to get to 2000. In November I decided to take a different approach to improving. During my last tournament at the Port Huron Chess Club, we played a G/90 quad in which I out rated all of my opponents my many hundreds of points. I played very well against my first two opponents, but during the last round I ran into a problem. You still...

Wednesday, October 19, 2011. Introduction to Chess 2. In April, 2011, I learned about the Calvin College Chess Tournaments that happened every month. When Katy Ford was the tournament director, there was a Top section. For the best players in the group, a Reserve Section. For the lower rated adults and higher rated kids, and a Scholastic Section. The next couple of months, I kept playing in the reserve section, meeting some really nice people. Here is an instructive article. If you are a complete beginner.

Warrior Chess: January 2011
http://warrior-barry.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Friday, January 21, 2011. Dec 17 I got to spend a few minutes with them. Then had them from Christmas Day thru Jan 2, 2011 and now it's back to every other weekend. :-) It's been absolutely AWESOME! They're loving it, too! Anyway, I'm just focusing on the boys. No girlfriends or activities that might interfere with them, etc. Just the boys, their well-being and happiness. :-).
