a must-read for everyone who doesn’t take chess too seriously; it’s especially a must-read for everyone who does take chess seriously

very, very entertaining . . . some of the back issues of Kingpin were instant classics

In the chess satire stakes @KingpinEd are masters of the art form … a veritable feast: irony, sarcasm, hyperbole

sharper than a bone-saw!

leaves my game shiny, manageable, natural looking

those who are unfamiliar with Kingpin are missing out on a real delight: there are many good chess magazines around, but in my opinion Kingpin is the best out there

very, very entertaining

It seems to me that you haven’t quite achieved the manic, off-the-wall style of humour that Informator manages so well, but you run them a pretty good second

A great English chess favourite

the magazine I most enjoy . . . Gary Lane’s agony column is a must for all chess addicts
