Hi & Welcome.

Q) Why a chess channel? A) Why Not? My Ukrainian friend says. I love chess, I'm not too bad at it, I enjoy it.

Dad & I often played Dutch Draughts, but its limitations led me to chess, So, dad is my ultimate connection to the game.
At around 12, I joined The Otago Chess Club, fully expecting to be Champion the moment I walked in ~ Nope!

Some Highlights...

1981 NZ Junior 3rd=
1989 NZ Lightning Champion
1989 North Island Champs 1st= (Sponsored and below)
Played in Australian Open 1990/92
2018 Canterbury Blitz #1
Public simultaneous displays
Organized 2 social chess tournaments

Channel Rule: What I like, when I like, as I like (Quote ~ Charles Spurgeon).
As a kid, I heard similar at the dinner table in Dutch. "Eat what the pot provides."

Inspired by my chess coach Doug. Why am I a Christian?  Because I'm not very good at life, therefore I realize my need & utter dependance upon Christ.

My aim is to share chess, keeping things clean and real. Primarily ENJOY the game.
