GM Hungaski in Blindfolded Simul Tonight

Postponed a week by the blizzard, the eight player blindfolded simul by grandmaster Robert Hungaski, originally scheduled for last Friday at the Marshall Chess Club, will take place tonight at 7pm.

If you reserved a spot for last week, please reconfirm to admin@marshallchessclub.org. A few spots are still available. If you would like to participate in this exciting event, please contact the Marshall Chess Club as soon as possible.

The board fee is $15. GM Hungaski will be available for a postgame analysis.

The simul is open to players of all ratings!

"My study of chess was accompanied by a strong attraction to music, and it was probably thanks to this that from childhood I became accustomed to thinking of chess as an art, and have never regarded it as anything else, for all the science and sport involved in it. And, moreover, an art which in some ways is closer to music than it is customary to think. Perhaps chess and music are drawn together by laws of harmony and beauty which are difficult to formulate and difficult to grasp, or perhaps by something else." - Vasily Smyslov
