    — I Believe Hostage the Most Interesting, Exciting Variant That Can Be Played with a Standard Chess Set. Mating Attacks Are the Norm

    — I believe Hostage the most interesting, exciting variant that can be played with a standard chess set. Mating attacks are the norm. Anyone can hope to discover new principles and opening lines. Grandmaster Larry Kaufman 2008 World Senior Chess Champion — Fascinating, exciting, extremely entertaining—–what a wonder- ful new game! Grandmaster Kevin Spraggett Chess World Championship Candidate — Probably the most remarkable chess variant of the last fi ft y years. Captured men are hostages that can be exchanged. Play is rarely less than exciting, sometimes with several reversals of fortune. Dramatic mates are the rule, not the exception. D.B.Pritchard author of “Th e Encyclopedia of Chess Variants” — Chess is not yet played out, but it is no longer possible to perform at a high level without a detailed knowledge of openings. In Hostage Chess creativity and imagination fl ourish, and fun returns. Peter Coast Scottish Chess Champion — With only a few rule changes, Hostage Chess creates a marvelously exciting variant on the classical game. Lawrence Day International Chess Master — Every bit as intriguing as standard chess. Beautiful roads keep branching off in all directions, and sharp eyed beginners sometimes roll right over the experts.

    Yanofsky, Daniel Abraham (”Abe”) (26.03.1925 - 05.03.2000)

    Yanofsky, Daniel Abraham (”Abe”) (26.03.1925 - 05.03.2000) First Canadian Grandmaster ever. Born in 1925 in Brody, then Poland, he arrived the same year in Canada, as an eight months young baby. A child prodigy. Brilliant technical play, especially in the endgame. Prominent Winnipeg lawyer and city councillor, Winnipeg, Manitoba, and Mayor of West Kildonan, Manitoba. Awarded the IM title in 1950 (the inaugural year), the GM title in 1964 and the International Arbiter title in 1977. The first chess player in the British Commonwealth to be awarded the Grandmaster title (Apart from German-born chess player Jacques Mieses who moved to England in the 1930s to escape Nazi persecution as a Jew. Mieses became a British citizen late in life, then received the title when FIDE first awarded the grandmaster title in 1950, Mieses was one of the 27 original recipients, and the oldest of them) Yanofsky was British Champion in 1953 and Canadian Champion on eight occasions: 1941 in 1943, 1945, 1947, 1953, 1959, 1963, 1965; his eight titles is a Canadian record (tied in closed tournaments with Maurice Fox). “Little Abie” or “Abe”, as the local newspapers called him soon, was a Child Prodigy. At age of 12, Yanofsky won the championship of Manitoba. He repeated every year through 1942, when nobody else even bothered to show up. Thereafter, Yanofsky was banned from further participation in the Manitoba provincial championship to encourage others to play in it :) At 14, was picked to play at board 2 for the Canadian Team in the Olympiad in Buenos Aires 1939.

Nakamura's first supertournament victory came at Wijk aan Zee 2011, finishing clear first ahead of the four top-rated players in the world in a performance described by former World Champion Garry Kasparov as better than any tournament by Bobby Fischer, and the best by an American in more than 100 years. Nakamura is the top USCF rated player at 2858, as published on 1 February 2012. Message from the Honourable Ida Chong Minister of Community, Sport and Cultural Development On behalf of Premier Christy Clark and the Province of British Columbia, I want to welcome all players, supporters, volunteers, and family members to the 2012 Canadian Open Chess Championship, being held in Victoria for the first time.
