Subject: Mind Sports Olympiad, London August 2009
The annual Mind Sports Olympiad is being hosted in London, United Kingdom from August 21-31, 2009. Many events that are played on brainking.com are being played there, including several World Championships. Some of the games played (which are also played here):

Lines of Action
Chess
Go
Backgammon
Poker
Chinese Chess
Draughts


Its a virtually unique tournament and a great experience. The standard of play and variety of games on offer are usually at very high standard. It would be great if at least some BK-ers could make it to London for this event.

Walter Montego: Hi Walter. No thet do not. The MSO concentrates on the main varients of several classic games like Chess, Go, Backgammon, etc. They do offer Exchange Chess and then Chess at various time controls. There is also scope for getting together impromptu mini-tournaments while at the MSO. I've pesonally played in several such events (eg. Hexdame) in recent years. You could try and get a Dark Chess mini-tournament going, and if I'm available I'll definitely give it a go.
