Good day everyone! I hope everyone is having a pleasant couple of days.
I am sure most people are upset about the postponement of the Sharg tournament.
However just because there is no tournament does not mean you cant play and make new friends in the game of chess.
The members of the Kuwait Chess Federation meet in Caribou Cafe every Saturday at 7:00 P.M.
This week alone, we had around 10 members enjoy themselves in dozens of blitz games in the coffee shop.
Mohamed Qabazard, Nasser Maqseed, Amer Al Amer, Khalaf Al Azmi, Ibrahim Shehab, Raed Al Ahmadeih, Omran Al Moussawi, Hashem Ali, and myself were all present from around 7Pm till around 10 PM.
Other people who usually join the fun are: Kuwait Champion Bader Al Hajeri, Taher Al Khateeb, Waleed Al Awadhi, Abdulsalam Al Dakheel, Abdullah Maqseed, Ali Moussawi, and a handful of others.
So come join us this week for a couple of games and feel the joy of playing with real pieces instead of just playing online.
Just to make it clear, this is NOT a tournament… Just a couple of friends playing chess
(couple of chess fans)
SO WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR??!!
COME ON AND JOIN US FOR A COUPLE OF FRIENDLY GAMES!
THIS AND EVERY SATURDAY AT THE CARIBOU CAFE IN THE AVENUES MALL AT 7 P.M.

And in response to the question, it is better if you bring your own chess set and maybe even chess clock.
Sincerly,
Khaled -the Super GM-

There are a couple of book stores that have chess books but most of them are old and boring. If you really want a book, order it online…
You can buy a good tournament chess set for under 3 KD in the “Landmark” stores. Look in the kids section where they sell baord games…
As for chess clocks, if you want a particuliar one like the CHRONOS CHESS CLOCK II, than you have to order it online.. If you want the DGT 2010, than you can contact Khalaf because he sells them. All other clocks will have to purchased online as well..
I hope that helped

Hello and welcome to Kuwait
There are several Landmark’s in Kuwait.
There is one in Shwaikh, another in Kuwait City, and I think there is one in Salmiya…
