About Me:
dear members, just an update, i feel great and in may after i flunked a stress test by needle , i had to have a heart catherization, received a stent in branch of heart and next day one stent in each kidney(they were 90%blocked), i didn't know i had arteries tthroughout kidineys , but it must be many since the hospital said they were common
i feel great though, i lost 52 pounds on weightwatchers, and have to deal with life throws you
i had a chess author, david rudel who wrote zukem about the colle zukertort
he has another book coming out soon on the colle
i love this site, great people, i' trying to learn better chess and i'm not giving up even though, i'm gett my butt kicked all the time, thankas for the lessons
dear members, since this post, i fell twice breaking my left shoulder and had another mini stroke, just got out of hospital and rehab after 15 days.
i had 2 carotid stents put in left artery since it was now closed to 80% and now its opened to 25%, i feel much better now and have many more questons about chess(mainly comparisons on defense such as caro kann compared to alekine french, sicilian and best book to get on caro kann, its variations
, i like the panov botvinnick attack, but which variation do you think is the best
who was the greatest grandmaster to have played the caro kann(i kniow there were many, but does one stand out
sorry i know i ask a lot iof questions, but i'm hooked on chess and just want to improve my game. i was told by members that i should pick out a couple openings for white and a couple defenses for black to start with.
i habve the scotch as one of my whites and caro kann as one of my black.
