Larry Christiansen in the hood

Because of rule changes in the US Championship the Boston chess public has enjoyed the presence of Larry Christiansen at local tournaments at BU and the BCF.

Last Saturday Larry won the $10 Open with four wins out of four games.

Larry said he had to really work hard for two of those victories and it really cool to see the three time US Champ compete head to head with us locals.

(Michelle Chen, Art Nugent, Bernhard Seehaus, and Anya Corke got to play a game with Larry for a $10 entry - not a bad deal. - editor's note.)

Thank you Larry hope to see you next week at the BCF.

Best Regards
