Chess blog for latest chess news and chess trivia (c) Alexandra Kosteniuk, 2012


Hi everyone,


Time for some weekend chess trivia. Okay, this might sound a little biased, but this chess trivia is for those who don't know Chinese. Come on don't groan. This is the poster of a special chess event that was held between the then European Women's Champion and the then World Women's Chess Champion!


You have to tell us which year this chess event was held as well!

Chess blog for latest chess news and chess trivia (c) Alexandra Kosteniuk, 2012


Hi everyone,


For a change, we have two talented gentlemen from chess - after all the complaints we have received of posting chess trivia asking readers to guess the names of only beautiful, stylish, talented chess women of the planet. Have we redeemed ourselves with this chess trivia question?
