Champion Chess Player’s websites

 

Didn’t find too much to work with today.  But I thought I would add it just in case it was of interest to someone..

Websites of Champion Chess Players

 

I was wanting to create a website for a International Chess Master.  I thought it would be a good place to start looking at sites of other chess champions and see what they look at, what they have on it, what they are for, etc.  Here are a few that I have found below.

I have also added a list of the top 100 players in the world (man and women) and in the US.

First round of May HCC Wednesday Tournament

The Houston Chess Club (HCC)  has a month long tournament on Wednesday night.  Each game takes just one night.  Each player is given 90 minutes to make the first 30 moves and then gets an additional 60 minutes each to finish the game.  All in all, it can be a 5 hour game.

This month, Stephen and I played.  The first round was the best for me in terms of the least mistakes, and I thought it would be a good chance to try out the Chess By Blog wordpress plugin.
