Great Videos of Chess
The first one is a video documentory showing how GARRY KASPAROV lost to DEEP BLUE in 1997. It is a sad video because that was the event that made Kasparov “crack.”
The 2nd Video is entitiled, “Chess’s Biggest Blunder!” Watch How Arthur Bisguier blunders against Bobby Fisher. A really funny Video. You will enjoy this short 1 minute film 🙂

CONGRATULATIONS TO AHMED EMAD! He is leading the tournament. If he wins or draws today, he will win the 1st place prize. Yesterday the Fide Master ended up drawing against Kuwait’s champ, Bader Hajeri. In other news, it was surprising to see that there was 6 draws among the 23 games yesterday! Never happened before. And most people with the white pieces won thier games. Only 6 games were won with the black pieces. Anyways, here is the latest leader standings:

TOMORROW FOR ROUND 6, AT TABLE 1, the biggest game of the tournament will be held.
Ahmad Emad, the Fide Master will go head-to-head against Kuwait’s top player, Bader Hajeri. All Eyes will be on these two players. If Emad wins tomorrow, than he will win the tournament with ease. If Bader Hajeri wins tomorrow, than Bader will win the rest with ease. There will be much stress on these two players as they prepare their games for tomorrow. You must keep your eyes on this game.
Here’s a few more pictures from this round. (picture 1) As you can see, Mohamed Qabazard has a banana ready for a quick boost in thinking 🙂 Very smart. Everyone should have a banana ready whenever you get ready for a game. Today Mohamed won with not much hard work. Great Job.
I wish all best Wishes. Good Luck tomorrow!
