As a chess player, I understand the discipline, patience, and strategic thinking the game demands. These are not just skills for the board, they are skills for life. Yesterday, I had the distinct honour of meeting with legendary Chess Grandmaster Judit Polgár as the Jamaica Chess Federation launched a bold and visionary initiative, to create Jamaica’s first chess grandmaster within the next 10 years. More than a title this programme is about sharpening the minds of our children, giving them the tools to think critically, to plan, to problem-solve, and to persevere. It’s about planting seeds of excellence in communities across Jamaica and watching a generation rise with the confidence that they, too, can be among the world’s best. I fully support this programme, and commend the leadership of the Jamaica Chess Federation as they continue the remarkable work of expanding and popularizing chess as another avenue through which our country can pursue and achieve greatness. Beyond being a sport, I believe in what chess can unlock in the minds of our youth; building capacity, creating opportunities, and expanding the landscape of what is possible for our people.

Chess grandmaster and top 20 ranked player Hans Niemann says chess will be completely unfazed by AI. "Chess is one of your last games board games to fall to AI... IBM defeated Kasparov of in somewhat controversial match only in 2005." "[Chess] has been a tool of soft power politically, you know, through the Fischer Spassky match in the Cold War." "Chess carries great intellectual and societal meaning for a lot of societies and they view it as a metric for their ability to nurture and grow their youth at what's arguably the sort of the greatest form of intellectual warfare."

It is 40 years since Garry Garry Kasparov defeated Anatoly Karpov in the World Championship 1985 to become the World Chess Champion. A fan showed us two of his prized possessions - the World Championship book 1985, which he got signed by Kasparov after the game! And even more special, a wonderful postcard he has which was signed after the match by Kasparov in 1985 - he has yet to get it signed, but as he mentions in the video, he is here at the Saint Louis Chess Club for all three days of the Clutch Chess Championship!

Norwegian chess grandmaster and world leader Magnus Carlsen has publicly called for Russia and Belarus to remain banned from international chess competitions. He made this statement during a ceremony where he was awarded the title of the greatest chess player in history. Carlsen remarked: “I believe Kasparov had a better career than me. I understand why I received this award, but he deserves it more. In honor of Garry, I will say this: he would advise against reinstating the Russian and Belarusian chess federations. And I stand by that.” Earlier, Babur Tolbaev, president of the Kyrgyzstan Chess Federation, suggested allowing teams from Russia and Belarus back into competitions. However, Carlsen firmly opposed this, supporting the sanctions and insisting that occupiers remain isolated.

Tata Steel Chess India in Kolkata didn’t go my way on the board, but there were positives to take away. Off the board, it was wonderful to see so many fans turning up, supporting and cheering for the players. I truly enjoyed that experience. Now heading to the Tata Steel Masters in Wijk aan Zee, a very prestigious event. The field this year looks extremely interesting and probably one of the youngest too. Looking forward to the next two weeks of chess! Do follow the event, and if you’re in the Netherlands, come by and watch the games. See you there. Cheers!

Y’all know I’m an avid Chess Player… and this is very interesting. During the military parade.. President Trump and Melania positioned themselves in a very particular order. - Watch Trump’s position. - Watch Melania’s position. - Watch the soldiers position. —— What Division is he with? Trump = King Melania = Queen Soldier = Knight This appears to be a symbolic depiction of Donald Trump playing the “king” and Melania Trump as the “queen” in a PROTECTIVE diagonal position, in a chess-like scenario, where perhaps a Knight has the King in Check or Checkmate. Worth remembering. Think CHESS. Do you attack the KING in the beginning or middle-to-end? QUEEN protects KING? My guess, someone got put in check… or mate, BIGLY. And a Major Piece did or will be taken off the board.

Battle Chess was a brilliant 1988 game by Interplay Entertainment that revolutionized chess gaming. Pieces animate vividly on the board, exploding into hilarious, brutal combat sequences during captures. So, instead of the (many) rather dry and standard chess games that existed, Battle Chess took the more playful path. For a while, I tried all the different battle animations, sacrificing pieces , just to see how they would perish. All jokes aside, it got me into chess more than anything else. Did you play it back in the day?
