This weekend at the ChessIQ Academy & Chess Center we will be hosting a free all-weekend long live commentary of the Final Four of Chess. The focus will be the games of the underdog team - the University of Illinois - who defied the odds and qualified 2 years in a row. As time permits other games will be commented on as well.
GM’s Shulman, Amanov, and Gurevich will each provide commentary on 1 round. Action starts at 10am CST (about 1 hour after the games have begun).
Thank you also to all of the individuals and organizations that provided funding to the Illini Chess Club to help them on their way to the Final Four. As a university chess program that does not have any form of university based funding your generosity was greatly appreciated by the team.
