some of the most varied, sometimes most interesting, and certainly least inhibited chess writing available today

the ‘Private Eye’ of the chess world

uses impiety and parody to hew down the conventions of publishing, even including mock testimonials

Unpredictable, honest, the funniest

leaves my game shiny, manageable, natural looking

If more people read this magazine then it would have a higher circulation

a new kind of whiteness I never thought possible with my old Chess Magazine – and without boiling

Scurrilous, funny, sometimes serious, sometimes libellous

I actually paid good money for No.9

Publication of the British magazine Kingpin is always an eagerly-awaited event
