Game Of The Week
One of the problems with publishing chess games is that I can’t publish someone’s win without publishing someone else’s loss. So, in an effort to keep those folks who may have had a loss published happy, I am announcing my policy of equal time:
Anyone who submits a game and has had a loss published by me in the past will be moved to the top of the list.
Of course, there is not much of a waiting list at this point, but at least, you will move ahead of my games. Anyway, I have already had someone take advantage of this generous policy. Robert Kohler was not too happy about the quick loss he suffered to Brian Wall. And I made it even worse by sending it out to the entire world! So he sent me a game which better reflects his chess ability:
