A huge thank you to Jacob (and John) for a thoroughly entertaining & enjoyable 4 days. The delivery was outstanding and I really do think it will help us identify and tackle weaknesses in our own play. It will be interesting to see how many of us can turn this into rating points in the coming season - as we now have the tools
Great value for money and highly recommended for anyone - whether they are seriously looking to improve their chess - or are just looking for a really entertaining couple of days. Loved every minute!
The .PGN is icing on the cake - and a great reminder of the lectures. There's a lot of great chess learning in there! |

I wholeheartedly concur with what William has said. After attending for the four days, I am now wondering if it is a different game I have been messing about with for three decades!
We all know about the occasional negative comments about Scottish Chess, but really, with such an exalted level of expertise being offered to us on our doorstep, I don't think there is too much wrong.
Big applause to Jacob and everyone involved in putting the event on. |

Was there ever a PGN file for Tiger's seminar?
I've managed to track down most of the games and even found another (earlier) example of his Nf4 sacrifice but there are a couple of games which I can't remember.
