Chess Biography of IM Emory Tate... "Triple Exclam!!!"

Emory Tate was a Chicago-born, Indiana-bred International Master who passed away October 17, 2015. He left behind a legacy of attacking games and conducted post-mortem analysis as if acting in a stage play. With his clear, accelerated speaking style, melodramatic portrayals, quick wit and creative word play, he intrigued audiences and showed unequivocally that chess is not merely a game to be played, but an art form to be expressed. This book is a tribute to the life and games of Tate over the course of his 56 years.

i just uploaded a clip of me talking to Emory Andrew Tate. This was in Palo Alto California back in 2013- He died exactly two years after we met. He was such a witty brother and i will forever miss him. He was so keen to come to Africa and do some chess coaching

[@DaaimShabazz]

I saw the video my brother. That was Emory that we knew. I'm glad you gave him insight on Africa. There were so many sides to him. We all got a piece of him that he wanted us to have. When we share our stories and put the pieces together we see we had something special.

I was in Zim a couple of years back, but didn't get a chance to stay.

I hope you and Andrew and Tristain have a sit down converstaion about their father and your book. They are at the moment the most popular humans trending on the Internet.. You will have to print up new copies because they will sell out. you should try and make the book available on their website too. Just a suggestion.. they have a great loyal following

[@DaaimShabazz]

It is actually selling on Amaxon worldwide.

@Mustafa Khan agreed

Salam alaikum from Senegal. You be surprised how some people knew or heard of Emory. Chess is just starting to become popular in Senegal and it’s played quite a lot in schools

[@DaaimShabazz]

Wa Laikum Salaam. I have written articles on Senegal. I have also written articles on Baba Sy.

HE IS THE MASTER PO!

[@ingenesiawheeler3692]

I will definitely get the book thank you very much ❤

[@nubianpwr]

I met him, and saw him play experts and masters in Dupont Circle Wash DC - giving the very best players there time odds. There was an "energy" in his games and around him that was palpable if not electric. He seemed to just know how to "kill" you on the board:-) He was very approachable as well.

[@DaaimShabazz]

He was a unique person for sure. Sorely missed.

[@mcgcricket]

Guess how famous he is now

[@thebarberrj]

[@DaaimShabazz]

His father was known in Africa as well.

[@luqmanbabalola7978]

@@DaaimShabazz you mean he played the game even right here in Africa? Which part of Motherland did he visit? Is that story include in the book? And to be sincere, am interested in know you also. When I first heard your name, I first thought you are from the middle east, but when I saw you am so glad, you're my brother. Thanks

[@DaaimShabazz]

@@luqmanbabalola7978 No... never played there, but he was known and his games were studied. The book is also on the continent.

I have a video on the Tate variation. Also met Tate in 1987 through Tom Murphy (my sparring partner). Murph talks a lot about Tate in my video interview with him ("Bad Cinematography).

[@DaaimShabazz]

Great! I'll take a look.

[@lennard8690]

Did Emory spoke german because he lived in Germany for a few years right?

[@DaaimShabazz]

Yes, but he had a gift for languages. Spoke eight languages.

[@danielanton3308]

why did he die?

[@bragzanma725]

heart attack

[@87thehoss]

Is there an audiobook version of this? I've heard his son Andrew talk so much and so highly about him that I want to read this book but I'm totally blind. Is this book on audible?

[@DaaimShabazz]

That is a great idea. I will work on it.
