Soo many people loved his commentary, including me. R.I.P.
The Naroditsky family shares the sad news of Daniel’s unexpected passing. Daniel was a talented chess player, educator, and beloved member of the chess community. We ask for privacy as the family grieves.

A key moment in Group A of the @WelshLeagues as 'Bullenov' of @S_E_A_Dragons (as MajorCoast below & @AlexCoachTripE4 ) has a good few options to convert here against perhaps-i-suppose of @TheRejects_GG What would you play as white? @chesscom #esports

This is the humourous new time control they are bringing into chess. Maybe it has a place, 5 rounds tournaments done in 1 day saves costs and time. Not the same though.

@Carl_Portman @ecfchess @JBlackburnChess @CSCMerseyside This has become a distinct possibility Carl as I’m about to host a new chess venture at the Old Post Office in the shadow of Lemmy’s statue! This very spacious pub venue has two function rooms for say 100 players. It’s owned by John singer in the Fortunes band
