Anyone aware of chess clubs or chess tournaments in Riyadh?
Once or twice a month I start jonesin' for a game. OTB beats computer chess, hands-down.
I live near Centralia Mall at Tahlia & Olaya. Scores of coffee shops and outdoor tables, but I've not seen a chess board yet.
A search on E-B yielded nothing. Leads welcomed!
Cheers.

I've seen sets and boards in many toy stores.
I too would love to play OTB but am not in Riyadh. Perhaps someday circumstances might meet an opportunity for a game.
chessfully yours,
