About Me:
Expletive Deleted Chess! A poor thought process is reflected in weak and ineffective play. Excels in throwing away any and all advantages, and is notorious for blunders and misplay in move order. I enjoy playing Queens Gambit/D4 variations as white. I have played the Italian games for E4, Kings gambit, C4 English, and even Birds F4. As black my play tends to appear passive and grinding a la Tigran Petriosan. I have played Judith Polgar in simul. I enjoy playing National Master Steve Colding here. I have gone and played the fabled hustlers of Washington Square park and the Thompson street chess cafes in NYC, when I lived in New York.
