White to Move
We're honoring the memory of the late Morris Giles.

Daaim Shabazz of The Chess Drum assembled a great tactics quiz based on Giles's victories against great Chicago players of the 1980s.  Check it out!

Sicilian Grand Prix with 5.a3!?

The former Sicilian player in me says "thanks for the tempo!"  But our own Matt Pullin and Michael Goeller of the Kenilworth (NJ) Chess Club are both pretty smart, so I'll suspend judgment.


 
Matt mentions that the late Billy Colias had played this line: does anyone have these games?
