A chess master died - after a few days, a friend of his heard a voice; it was him!
"What's it like, where you are now," he asked.
"What do you want to hear first, the good news or the bad news."
"Tell me the good news first."
"Well, it's really heaven here. There are tournaments and blitz sessions going on all the time and Morphy, Alekhine, Lasker, Tal, Capablanca, Botvinnik, they're all here, and you can play them."
"Fantastic!" the friend said, "and what is the bad news?"
"You have Black against Capablanca on Saturday."

Convention of chess players in hotel. In the public foyer of the hotel before the start of the convention they were discussing loudly who had the best rating, who was a GM etc. Typical chess players, boasting, puffing themselves up. You might even say they were:
"Chess nuts boasting in an open foyer"
Any othe chess jokes to share?
