Well, it’s been a minute but I’m back at the tables for my first Over The Board (OTB) tournament at my new chess home, the Boylston Chess Club in downtown Boston. This place is so OG, I can’t stand it. Big, wooden boards and 4-6” wooden pieces make this feel like I’m in a 19th century chess salon. But don’t let the facade of civility fool you because oh yes, there will be blood! ♟️
