About Me:

I play chess to make money and meet women.

I consider myself a 'Practical' player, "Despite being comfortable in more types of openings, these players often have serious holes in their theoretical knowledge. They just hope to get a reasonable position out of the opening without spending too much time, and then to simply outplay you."

Time Management, the most underrated skill in all of chess!

The first statement was an IQ test; if you read it and said "oh", then you just lost a piece.
