From today the weekly bulletins will be shorter than in the past but we will still bring you plenty of quality content! Â
Roughly every other week we will bring you three games by local players.  These will be a mixture of best/favourite games, short games and swindles and will be annotated by the players themselves or one of us. Â
Today we start with a really nice miniature and two games featuring unusual middlegame king walks.
