tkg, after putting an add asking people if they know any chess clubs in beijing i saw your posting.
i'm rated life master in the usa and enjoy "talking sh*t" with a real opponent (the social aspect of the sport) instead of just playing on the internet. maybe we can connect and find a club in Beijing together. china has a strong chess team with few GMs that competes in international events and i’m sure we can find where they get together and play.

please forgive wefrucar. he is really smart and i enjoy reading his posts because they show signs of intellect, knowledge and articulation. but as you know tkg, it takes a little above average intelligent to understand or play chess . wefrucar's comment shows that he is not there yet

sorry wefrucar i like your clear insight into human behavior and motivations but that’s not enough to play chess. you are just lucky that you didn’t say “You could just go to a park and find some old, BALD, SHORT and FAT men playing xiangqi.... show some interest and they'll probably be excited to play with you. chess is really a young man’s game but unlike basketball when we get old, wise, handsome and sexy we can still play and enjoy the game

You see buddy, you are NOT a chess player. If you missed what was said in simple and plane englishi here how can u figure the brilliant combinations that Capablanca used in say…The Kings Gambit? Capablanca would never use words like f***, ass or bitch. in fact chess players act like lip3 but they are genuine in culture and class. in their silence and polite words, chess players say things that would spin a man with average inelegant spin like a mother fu**er.

but I like you because you have shown to be well read, educated and have the capacity to retain and understand what you have learned. however in chess, chess culture and ethics…you are WAY outclassed here buddy.

tkg, don't you love it when average people wana F*** with chess players?

You are right young man I never played in NY parks but at the Santa Monica Pear. You were really lucky that you didn’t continue the game when you were 7 because the voice inside was right. Chess can consume too much of your time missing other beautiful and challenging parts of life. but winning the 2nd place in southern California (whatever age) is impressive. I don’t look at chess as a professional sport. I think chess is best played as a side recreational game.

My studies and work were in math and computer science so I got as much challenge and more than I could handle. I’m now just an old handsome and sexy man that likes to dance, get laid and have fun by pondering over the board of life. B)

I’m glad that you understood my sense of hummer and laughed. i would have been disappointed by you if you would have taken what i said as insults

I like backgammon and I'm intersted but I will back to BJ in about 2 or 3 weeks.

Shoukd I bring a backgammon board with me? I'm not sure we can find one in China.

Hey KC I will play you on yahoo chess some time and kick your sad Islamic ass.

Yeah yeah, like I am going to meet you in real life Mr Suicide bomber.

Another back-down.

I am beginning to think your real name is Viki.

By the way, is Mikey knawing you off as we speak?

good question. i have my set and chess clock ready. StarBucks is not a bad place. i live in the Champing district but i drive a jeep and can meet u in a place not too far away B)

Hi U still up for some chess in Beijing?

Mr. Magic (so so at chess, but an expert at fun)

You two are gonna make quite the team.

I can tell.

so?
any actual clubs in beijing?

dont expect much tho, living in china has had a bad effect on my skills

Sorry guys I'm not in BJ any more and got on TBJ because i got a few PMs. I don't even remember the last time I got o TBJ.

Really miss this site but not BJ. There are really very good and smart people on this site.

Nobody.
