BCN
BUDAPEST’S POPULAR ENGLISH-LANGUAGE CHESS MAGAZINE!
Author, teacher and chess master, Michael Yip has resided in Budapest since 2009. Intimately knowledgeable of Budapest’s chess community, for the last couple of years Michael has brought to the reader the latest chess news and developments from one of Europe’s most active cultural centres. Tournament results, opening ideas, annotated games, endings and much more!
PLUS, a new addition to Michael’s magazine there has been a large section on Canadian chess news and developments! This has enabled my Canadian readers to follow what has been happening all across Canada.

YIP’S TOP CHESS BLOGS:
Canada’s NUMBER ONE source for Canadian Chess news, games and other information! Started several months ago as an off-shoot of the popular BCN, Yip has revolutionized the way the average Canadian amateur finds out what is happening in Canada! Updated daily!

As a short aside, since Yip has started to cover Canadian Chess tournaments and players, the CFC has been scrambling to try to catch up! The CFC website has recently created a dedicated newsfeed, but so far the editor behind this initiative—even though he has the best of intentions— has stumbled, messed-up and , at times, failed miserably to deliver the right content for the CFC’s members! WHY? Because he can not match Yip’s passion for chess and writing!
_________________________________
For opening theory buffs! Updated daily, Yip presents the latest theoretical developments starting with 1.e4 from the world’s top tournaments. Plus plenty of opening secrets explained just for you!
The same genre as above, but devoted exclusively to 1.d4. Want to know the latest ideas in the Grunfeld? The Slav? The Benko? Plus much, much more! Then this blog is for you! Updated daily.
