Movers and Shakers

Big week for Henry R. Takes the club lead in wins and moves up to 4th place.
Another win for Ethan, moving up three spots in the rankings.
Abdul A's win over Chris G and draw with Natalia L brought him to within percentage points of Samuel M for the 6th spot.
Rumors of a Linares vs Linares matchup persist, but if it took place, the result was not recorded...


  • Position of the week: pinned piece.


A pinned piece is a piece that can't move because it would put the player in check.
How can black take advantage of this?

white's pawn at g2 is "pinned."
Black to move, with mate in two.
