Check The Checks

Greetings,

Tonight, the Colorado Springs Chess Club finishes up the April Swiss 75 (G/75+30, 4SS, $10 entry, prizes) and will hold an IHOP Quick (G/24;d/5, 4SS, $5 entry, prizes) this Friday.

This week’s position comes from last Tuesday’s battle between Jordan Myers and Dean Brown (which ended in a draw but could have gone either way). It is black to move.
