Best of the Web includes Norway Chess 2015, which features seven of the world's top 10, including World Champ Magnus Carlsen.
That's Garry Kasparov on the left kibitzing on the opening blitz tournament.
This week's GOTW shows very interesting openings ideas by Black in a modern defense that quickly lead him to a good position. However, finding a plan was not easy and Black unfortunately failed to find the necessary counterplay.
On June 13 - 14, 2015, the Langley Chess Club held a special tournament, the Peter Yee Memorial, to commemorate and recognize our friend and long time club member Peter Yee who passed away in March 2015.
