Birthday: May 17, 1977
Played a while in a chess club, but don't have time to at the moment since I've become the father of two wonderful boys. I now play mostly online.
Highest Chess.com online chess rating: 1434 (Nov 2008)
Highest chess.com tactics rating: 1345 (Nov 2008);
Chess books I've read ALL the way through:
Play winning chess (Seirawan);
Samurai chess (Gelb/Keene);
Everyone's 2nd chess book (Heisman);
Currently reading (November 2008):
Winning chess tactics (Seirawan);
Logical chess: Move by move (Chernev);
To me chess is...
a universe of endless opportunities;
a way to meditate;
a metaphor for life;
a reflection of myself, with all my pros and cons, my dreams and desires, fears and disappointments;
an art form;
a mental martial art;
Looking forward to meeting you in a good game that we'll hopefully both learn something valuable from..
