About Me:
I am 21 years old and study Economics at University College Dublin. I like to go running, usually 3 times a week at least. I also play the guitar having played on two records for an Irish rock band. When i get time i also teach myself swedish language. I am an open person and easy going. I dont like having too many games going on at once and i will generally give preference to people who use the forums.[I am here for learning not ratings]

My Chess Style / Favorite Openings:
I play chess most days and like to play sharp open games. My favourite players are Spassky, Kasparov and Johnny Hector. Tournaments i have played: European Youth Champs, British Champs, Irish Open, Irish Youths, Bunratty, Kilkenny, Isle of Man, Glorney Cup, Armstrong Cup, Heidenfeld Cup. Playchess.com 1756 ICC 1756 [yup! exact same on both!]
