About Me:
Enjoy playing stronger opponents with more experience. Also like discussing moves and ideas so that I can grow as a player.
I play everyday (usually against my Chessmaster program). I am extremely tactical but recently read Reaccess Your Chess by Silman and am trying to implement "plans" into my playing style and become more positional. I don't study openings, but try to let the situation govern what my opening moves will be. Tal is my all time favorite master.
