A great English chess favourite

the ‘Private Eye’ of the chess world

one of my favorite magazines

Its rather coarse satirical manner may not appeal to everyone – just the majority of us who enjoy sharp games and low humour

Aside from being funny, Kingpin is often pretty controversial too, with many an allegation or insinuation strewn amongst its pages

one of the very few chess publications that call a chess spade a chess spade

Both serious and funny, I recommend it to anyone who wants to smile as he reads

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

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

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
