Norcal House of Chess activities and tournaments this weekend

I. SIMULTANEOUS EXHIBITION by youngest Chess Master in the US history.

This Friday (October 5), NorCal House of Chess will conduct a simultaneous exhibition by the youngest chess master in the US history, Samuel Sevian. He crossed 2200 rating at age 9! Interestingly, he did this impressive feat in our very own tournament, NHC Open couple of years ago. His current rating is 2446! He also has 2 IM norms and needs only one more to become an International Master. He will be joined by his dad, who is also a strong player. Before the simul, we will have a 30-minute segment for question/answer for both Sam and his dad Armen. Please come and join us. Seats are limited so please email us if you want to participate in this event.

Simultaneous exhibition $ 17.00 ($ 15.00 for NHC members).  We will start the event at 6:15 pm. Please come at our new location: 48002 Osgood Road, Fremont, CA 94539. For more info, please go to our website at www.norcalhouseofchess.com.
