✅ FIDE approves hybrid competitions valid for rating. ⠀ “Hybrid” is a format where the games are played online, but the participants are physically present in a public place like a club, federation headquarters, hotel, et cetera. All games are played under the supervision of an arbiter present on site. ⠀ A few weeks ago, the FIDE Council approved a new set of rules to be applied to official online chess competitions. The document established the framework for “hybrid” events. More on FIDE website. ⠀ What do you think of this new format of play? ⠀ #chess #fide #newbeginnings #hybridchess #fiderating #apca #apchess #AndhrapradeshChess https://www.instagram.com/p/CKNq6KBAS__/?igshid=m4fz6tc8tq20

♟️ Irving Chernev is best remembered as one of the greatest chess writers of all time. Born in Pryluky, Ukraine, at the dawn of the 20th century, he and his family immigrated to the United States in 1920. His father taught him chess at the age of 12, and a lifelong love affair with the game followed. . 📕 His 20 books, published between 1933 and 1989, were responsible for attracting many Americans to the game. An Invitation to Chess, co-authored with Kenneth Harkness, sold more than 100,000 copies. Even more popular was "Logical Chess: Move by Move", which analyzes 33 famous games from 1889-1952 and is still used to explain master thought to aspiring players. . 🔔 Irving quoted: "Every chess master was once a beginner". This statement is not only used in chess but in everything that we do in our lives and needs discipline and self-motivation. . 👉 Do you have this mindset? . #Andhra_Pradesh_Chess_Association #APCA #APCHESS #CHESSSUMAN https://www.instagram.com/p/CDZaucWAJkC/?igshid=ztwxcvy7c6x0
