#24 - Can blindfold chess make you better at chess?

Average Joes Chess

With expert input from NM Jesse Cohen, coach at Summit chess, and Jonathan, host of the Invisible Chess podcast, the Joes try to learn more about blindfold chess. Joe and Al also talk about their chess week and recap the inaugural tournament played in the Average Joes Chess Club on chess.com - Siddled Saturday, where the winner got a 1 month diamond membership to chess.com. If you want to join the chess club then click this link. Al and Joe recap their chess challenges, with Joe talking about how he got on as a clairvoyant communicating with chess masters who are no longer with us. Joe sets Al a tidy new challenge and Al gives Joe a motivational Chess Challenge. There’s other stuff that goes on too, but frankly I’m not convinced that people ever get this far into the description and I've other things to be getting on with - so just have a listen and see wha'ts on the show this week.
