Years ago the embassador of Argentina in my country, friend of mine trough chess, gave me a magnificent set compoed of the most beatiful wooden pieces and board ever made, all of them deasigned and carved by a craftman that used to work for Najdorf and some others Masters living in Argentina. It is huge, so I rarely has the disposition to wipe a full table -the dinning table- in order to use it. I recall now I used it to play a game against IM Cifuentes. I wonder what can I do with it. Maybe to put it in eBay? I could get around 1000 bucks for it, if not more. Perhaps send it to a friend that collects chess stuff and has been as a father to me? He could give to it good use in his museum. I am talking of an old man that in the sunset of his life like to collect trivia and caress all computers in the little hours. Or I must return it to the dark corner where it is carefully packed? Maybe could I make a luxurious bonfire and say farewell to chess? Should I forget all this? I accept suggestions... Troublesome Regards fernando
