Dozens of chess players in places like Washington Square Park, Union Square and St. Nicholas Avenue and 141st Street are up all night, taking on all comers, for a few dollars a game. The games are fast and gritty and often peppered with non-stop and colorful banter. Chess hustling has been around for many years, but how and when did it begin? In 2007, a hustler named Kenny, who went by the name Little Daddy, and who had been hustling on the street for decades, said that the guy who started it all was a man named Bobby Haywood. He said that Haywood appeared one day in ...

Rh7+ 1-0 ——— Carlsen Express Rolls on — The King’s Chess Tournament in Romania is turning into an exhibition. Magnus Carlsen, the Norwegian chess grandmaster who is the world’s No. 1 player, beat Teimour Radjabov of Azerbaijan on Monday, to run his winning streak in the chess event to four games. He leads the tournament with 5.5 points after seven rounds. Boris Gelfand of Israel, the only player not to lose to Carlsen so far, is in second place with 4.5 points, after beating Liviu-Dieter Nisipeanu of Romania on Monday. Carlsen and Gelfand play Tuesday. Though Carlsen has won the last three chess tournaments he has played (Amber, Corus and the London Classic), the last time he was on a roll like he is now was ...

Carlsen, the top seed, won his third game in a row at the King’s Chess Tournament in Romania on Sunday. This time, his victim was Ruslan Ponomariov of Ukraine, who was winning for most of the game. But then he blundered (23 Rf2? instead of 23 Kh1) allowing Carlsen to turn the tables. He was also a bit fortunate in Round 5, on Saturday, when he beat Liviu-Dieter Nisipeanu of Romania. In that game, Nisipeanu had a small advantage, but Carlsen employed a nice feint and Nisipeanu took the bait (17 Qd5, he should have played 17 Nd5), after which his position was very difficult. Carlsen, a Norwegian, now has 4.5 points and ...

Sometimes the desire to execute an original plan can overwhelm even the desire to win. Mikhail Tal, a former world chess champion, wrote in his autobiography that he had lost more than a few games because he had chosen a “beautiful” combination, only to discover that he had miscalculated. To borrow a baseball metaphor, a grand slam for a chess player would be to play brilliantly, win the game and defeat a strong opponent when there is a lot riding on the outcome. That is what Timur Gareev of Uzbekistan did in the final round of the National Open in Las Vegas last Sunday. He trailed ...

Gareyev yielded a first-round draw to IM Joe Bradford of Texas but won his next five games. He was particularly tough on Southern Californians, inflicting defeats on IM Andranik Matikozyan and, in the final round, GM Varuzhan Akobian. Tied for second at 5-1 were Akobian and GMs Arthur Kogan (Israel), Alex Lenderman (New York) and Alejandro Ramirez (Costa Rica). Matikozyan tied for sixth at 41/2-11/2. There were 19 GMs in the 105-player Open section. Two Southern Californians, Danyul Lawrence and 12-year-old Michael W. Brown, shared ...
