truesaint Posted July 14, 2019 Report Share Posted July 14, 2019 Are there any old codgers like myself who play the occasional game of chess and want to take part in an online Saints tourney. The tournament would be hosted on chess.com and the draw would be made by random with each game being a max of 10 mins and is the best out of three. If you are interested then like or use a different emoji for this post. The tourney will start next sunday and games will be played at a time that suits both parties drawn together. The game must be played within one week. The winner will move onto the next round and the final will be played whenever we reach the final 2 which will depend on how many people wish to enter. If you do not already have a chess.com account then register one for free and pm me your username for both this site and the one on chess.com The prize - The title of BAWA Grandmaster!

truesaint Posted July 21, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2019 Fair Point she would be the favourite. She will step aside and let the final commence then If no-one else fancies a shot at the title. What about poker? I would like to expect a better response if I set up an online Poker tourney?
