No one quite knows how this is going to work, but you'll be encouraged to gamble with poker chips, and possibly play some chess, and maybe win some free beers and other stuff. It might be fun. #chess #Denver

It had been a while since I got to do the ol' Lasker Trap. Always fun. And yes, game review, underpromoting to a knight IS very cool. Thanks for noticing! #chesspunks

Drink, play (3+2blitz) chess, and support a good cause tonight at www.woodsbossbrewing.com. #Denver #Chess

I found Nxe5 here, and the game review labeled it as brilliant, but I noticed the eval went down. The subtle Qe4 is a fair amount better, as you still keep the N and come out in a better position...but chessDOTcom labels that move as merely great. No bueno.

I think this is the first time I've ever had an 8 pawn advantage in a game.

Chess.com doesn't know shit.

Chess.com really needs to update it's Grob theory. That move is totally book!

(Puts on monocle.) The modern Grob affords many opportunities for Rook sac mates along the G AND H files! Keep your eyes open, fellow Grobbers. #chesspunks

It's one the most stressful, annoying days of the year coming up. Vallentimes. Take a break from your partner to get frustrated with a different partner (our take on hand and brain) this Wednesday night at Woods Boss Brewery. #Denver #Chess #Chesspunks

Always a pleasure to dirty flag UFC legend Mark Hunt in 1/0. I get paired with him randomly a lot, for some reason. #chesspunks #chess #ufc

ORC fell to Denver Chess Club, 8.5 to 5.5. Their top boards were just too strong. But it was neck and neck til the end. Buy our loser murch, please. #chess #chesspunks #denver
