Welcome to the
ChessCafe.com Video Spotlight. Each Wednesday and Saturday we will
feature a chess related video for your entertainment.
Jay King cannot remember the last time he lost at
chess. His challengers have come from all ends of this earth. But the
result is usually the same: a loss. His accomplishments have not come on
the grandest of stages though, as he has done his check-mating at
Starbucks in Five Points, thereby proclaiming himself as "The Coffee
Shop Chess King." However, WLTX Sports Director Ari Bergeron was not
impressed and took on Jay in a friendly game. But not before asking the
self-professed king, "What You Got?"
