From KETC, LIVING ST. LOUIS Producer Ruth Ezell visits the St. Louis Chess Club and Scholastic Center where she meets 10-year-old Margaret Hua, already one of the highest ranked chess players in the U.S.
I recently lost to Margaret at the Chicago open.. it was a drawn position after a middlegame of reckless abandon (I was out of the money and had nothing to lose), then I went for an unusual attempt at winning, which was quite a mistake, and ended up losing. She's definitely good for her age. My rating is around 1600
This is an excellent debut for little Miss Hua and for the SLCCSC! This place has become my lunch break haven! And you know what!?! They have umbrellas!! I had to walk far to buy lunch and I (as a member) was able to borrow this BIG, ergonomic-handled umbrella :) !! I've met Margret... she is sweet! I'll have to play her soon! Oh and the mountain of chess books... you can study there and leave your chess set at home! Come check out our Chess Club, where the U.S. Open 2009 will be held!

she's the next bobby fisher, but her parents must make sure she is psychologically ok, we don't want her going insane like bobby fisher went

Nicely done. Several errors as always, but well done.
