About Me:
School, parties, until this year I played pro paintball -- which is very similar to chess in the mental aspect. I snowboard and I'm really into fashion and traveling. I listen to mostly hardcore / metal and some lounge music. I also really like jazz, mostly Gato Barbieri though.
My Chess Style / Favorite Openings:
I love chess for a reason I can't really put into words... I'm sure a lot of people feel this way so I'll assume you understand what I mean.
I try to play on chess.com daily and ICC as well. I don't get to play with physical pieces that often so I've been teaching my friends to play just so I can use my chess set! Hah. I'm aggressive... or I try to be. I'm just now learning openings etc., don't really have a favorite yet.
I've placed 3rd and 4th in tournaments when I was younger. But that... was a long time ago. Haha. Not sure about favorite players, probably any American GM's. A lot of the older dudes featured on this site are pretty rad, namely Paul Morphy and Aron Nimzowitsch.
