2026/05/24: entered the 2026 Amateur Chess Organization (ACO) World Super Seniors (65+) Chess Championship. It was held in Greece on the island of Kos at the Atlantica Belvedere Resort. Being an amateur event, there were 7 divisions based on ratings (sort of like weight classes in wrestling). It was 8 days and 9 rounds. I won my division. My wife Lisa Horner Roberson took the pic. You can see the Aegean sea and another Greek island in the background.
