Cathal Murphy, Danny Mallaghan, Cecil Sloane off to the US to play chess

An opportunity to play the most brilliant of games and have a holiday and meet new players, travel and potentially win money. Hopefully they'll come back wealthier and with a story to tell....

Currently Danny Mallaghan Cecil Sloane and Sam Moore are out in Las Vegas playing Chess. They are to be joined by Cathal Murphy..

Cathal played late last year in the North American Open and played brilliantly to gain joint 2nd place out of a field of 81 players.
