My friend Jimmy Adams (1947-6 June 2026) has died. He had been ill for a while. In recent times he had been writing historic chess books . His latest one is out soon and he recently received an advance copy and he was pleased how it looked. A top guy. #chess

As our March magazine arrives with subscribers, don't forget it's also available from @ChessAndBridge! One highlight is a report on the Bob Wade Memorial, by @MickeyAdamsGM, including a fine annotation by Daniel Fernandez. Here's Mickey with star NZ organiser Paul Spiller! #chess

Chatting to Susan Lalic about chess. Now my daughter Jasmine is seeing her niece @pinkpantheress2 perform a concert in Sydney on Sunday. It must be a family disappointment that Victoria has no chess rating :-) #chess @lanewayfest

A garylane.com site is surely chasing cash. How much should I offer, 50, 90 or up to $1?

IM Gary Lane @garylanechess on Powerhouse Pawn Sacrifices:
“An interesting aspect is that a number of openings are closely examined … even if you don’t play these lines, there is enough general guidance to make it transferable knowledge in similar positions. It can only improve your middlegame and positional prowess. A great way to improve your decision-making.”
