Check out Ben's Chessable courses here! www.chessable.com/author/BenF... GM Ben Finegold discusses Patrick Wolff as part of the Great Players of the Past series. This lecture was recorded February 10th, 2021, at the Chess Club and Scholastic Center of Atlanta (CCSCATL) in Roswell, Georgia. Why am I posting this now? It's for channel consolidation and Ben is busy. It was originally posted on the CCSCATL channel on February 17th, 2021. Now it's here.

Why does ben make half hour long introductions? He gets paid by the hour.

I had to watch this after seeing Patrick win his game in Wolff style yesterday in the US Senior. As an old-timer, I remember him well!

Damn, Benji knows everybody. One thing I like about Finegold is that he isn't overly involved with chess, he jokes about tunes from times gone by and teaches chess in a way only a GM could but brings details and draws games!

When Ben got to the game, it was awesome.

When I was living in Paris, I met a girl who told me she knew a good chess player. As usual, I expected nothing much. I asked her his name, she said "Kamran." That's how I got to know him pretty well. Can you do a video about Shirazi?

Wow. This name is not in memory now. I switched to bridge almost 3 decades ago. The only Wolff that comes to mind is Bobby Wolff. I think I remember Patrick but only because of this video. There is a Patrick in poker, the movies, and even Star Trek. However, Wolff gets tied to Bobby and bridge. I've gotten old.

Though never actually allowed to play bridge, I did learn the game at an early age. Starting a game of chess is simpler than starting a game of Bridge you see.

@dsassignment5009 Жыл бұрын

I looove the thumbnail. Why? Because it includes a picture when the player of the past is young, so I don't think of him only as an old boomer but also as a young man. Keep doing that in the future.

GM Ben places Oakham in the N of England, he would never have made the tournament without the Wolf shepherding him!

Ben was busy at the World Open and not streaming. We’re also trying to merge the CCSCATL channel and this one together, so I usually work on that when there isn’t new content to edit. - Ben’s Editor
