Looking to get a copy of the Woodpecker Method this weekend. Anyone in Los Angeles selling a copy, store or person? Ordering it will somehow take several weeks to arrive?

I’ve decided to try the Woodpecker Method. I’m using Ray Cheng’s amazing puzzle book, but all the positional pawns sac are tough. The Woodpecker puzzles are a bit too hard past the easy ones. Can someone suggest a puzzle book that I should use? 1750 USCF

@chessreads @GMFloresRios @GMJacobAagaard @kuljasevic I think you've mistitled this post. It should be the top 5 middlegame books that are too advanced for most chess improvers. Hopefully, one day I will be good enough to read them!

[Dr. Scull - Chess Journeys @DoctorScull]

About to start our weekly 5/3 arena. Come by an join any team over the next 1.5 hours or watch the fun. Games are low stress/unrated. We have a wide range of players.

There's been a lot of chaos with flooding in my house this weekend. So, I'm in a last second desperate search for someone to interview tomorrow (Monday) at 4 PM pacific. All skill levels welcome! DM me or respond. Thanks.

Has anyone assembled a list of upcoming adult/senior U.S. chess tournaments. It's quite a task searching through every state, every couple of weeks, hoping they are now posted. It would be amazing if someone was already tracking this.

1-2 at the North American Open. Hoping to turn things around today.

As some of you know, I started getting into chess last spring.

Last week, I was invited onto the Chess Journeys: Tales of Adult Improvement podcast with the incredible @DoctorScull to talk chess & tell my story.

What's the strangest place that you've played a chess tournament? Mine was a cold war museum while a lecture on the cold war was taking place.
