French Dip
Kids: When you weaken your kingside pawn structure, beware. Of course, it doesn't help to fall behind needlessly in material, either.

About This Site
- Tom Panelas
- Chicago, Illinois, United States
- This blog is primarily about the kids in the Ray School Chess Club, but it also aims to promote and chronicle chess in the Chicago area generally and, for that matter, everywhere. Wherever you've come from: welcome to our site. The blog's title, for readers who aren't familiar with Ray, refers to the school itself—a 115-year-old fortress of a building, replete with turrets, on Chicago's South Kimbark Avenue. Disclosure: I work for Encyclopaedia Britannica and sometimes link to its articles from here.
