I'm no expert at the game but I always enjoyed it. I think if I played the moderator here I'd get crushed in about 10 moves.

When I went to NYU there was a chess club near by that I was a member of.

It was a nice hangout to study in. I didn't dare play though.

NYT was always running articles on various chess matches and you could play the matches out.

Those were back in Fischer's days.

Paulson needs to get the Victoria Secret girls more involved.

British GQ ran a story about the match in the same issue containing a photo feature on the Victoria’s Secret lingerie show in New York. The surprised editors posted on Twitter, “So this story about #chess is currently more popular on the site than our 100 shots of Victoria’s Secret models.”

There is hope in the chess world that with Carlsen as the game’s official standard-bearer, it will regain the cachet it briefly enjoyed after Fischer’s victory.
