About Me:
Hi, I'm Kyle. I am 15 years old and love to play chess. I really like playing OTB, but there are few tournaments around, so I can't exactly play more than one small tournament a month. I have always liked playing counterattacking openings that are complex. I always try to make my own improvements on theory; even if I fail, I still learn valuable information about the position I am dealing with. So far, I have made some improvements in existing variations, but have also made a couple openings of my own. If you have an improvement in a opening variation, feel free to run it by me and I will give you feedback on it.
My chess is very inconsistent. I can absolutely crush a 2200 and then hang a piece the very next game. I am very good at explaining the logistics of certain moves, but sometimes have a difficulty thinking with this objective mindset in my own games.
