About Me:
Hello, my name's Simon. I play for the University team and enter most of the local tournaments. I enjoy tactical positions and I'm currenty exploring the Kings gambit and some Sicilian lines.

For anyone looking to improve I strongly reccommend Nimzowitsch's 'My System'. 'The Art of the Checkmate' and 'The Art of the Sacrifice in Chess' are also very good reads.
