Queen’s Gambit

by Emil Sutovsky

Queen’s Gambit is a surprising hit. It showed chess still captivates people’s minds. It actually proved that a story about chess journey can do without good and evil, without failure turned into success, even, sorry guys, without a single unexpected twist in the script. Queen’s Gambit remains no.1 show on Netflix for three weeks already. Thousands of people who once played chess, got back to the board. Many more discover chess for a first time. Google Trends shows an exponential rise of people searching for “chess lessons”. Chess sets and books are sold as never. Once again, we prove – chess is not just another board game, but rather an intensive, fascinating game. Chess is suitable for everyone – no matter which religion, race or sex you are identifying with. Just do yourself a favor – get one of these old chess books (or buy a new one), set the board, and just enjoy this magic called chess.
