GM Gergely Szabo held a GM Simul and Game Analysis Event for our 900-1300 JtM Group also on Saturday, Aug 8, 2020.
GM Gergely scored a perfect 6/6 and after providing some FUN, he met with all Players and led a group game review and analysis session to provide a LEARNING opportunity.
This group review and analysis session is exactly same learning practice that GM Gergely does with his Team Canada squads at the World Cadet and World Youth Chess Championships.
