CHESS at Starbucks Wednesday Oct. 8, 2014 !

Hi Everyone . . . !

Chess has returned to our usual Starbucks venue at 1536 Kirker Pass Rd., Clayton, Calif. every Wednesday - now from 6:00 p.m. - 9:00 p.m! We meet again this Wednesday, October 8, 2014. Come by anytime, the earlier the better, for the best tables, more games, and good company!

Last week saw chess action that took over the new Starbucks long center stage table, with Hans, Chris T., Anthony, John S., Bill K., Mark, and Mike T. enjoying the games and the coffee shop atmosphere . . .

. . . and this Wednesday come by and give Anthony some pre-tournament practice or simply good luck and best wishes for his run at chess fame and fortune at the rather large (at least 500 or 600 players) $1,000-per-entry Millionaire Chess Tournament -- the guaranteed overall prize fund is $1,000,000 -- at the Planet Hollywood Hotel & Casino on the Strip in Las Vegas, Nevada this weekend !!

See you soon,
