About Me:
I am a physical chemist (Mgr., master degree) working in hospital in Liberec. I am not married. I live in Nova Viska in my cottage. My hobbies: Chess, motorbiking, winter swimming, card games, good tea, mysteries. I also thought i became apiarist, but i don't have enough time. I learned rules of chess when i was 8 years old, competitively i play from my 11. I came from Litomysl, where i play in a local club. I won junior regional championship when i was 18. I won or shared 1st place in our club championship tournament 3 or 4 times. In regional championship tournament i was once 2nd and once 3rd. Online chess i started playing 8 years ago at chess.hogan.cz, but i was soon repulsed by chess engine cheaters, so i continued OTB only. Chess.com i found by Google (Batgirl's blog). My FIDE card.
My favourite song almost cost me my mental health!
Chess is related to self-esteem. Chess can help, but chess can harm too. Self-esteem is related to drinking and eating habits. Chess made me both. Yigor wrote I am obsessed. Maybe I am.
