Back in Russia, I used to be GrandMistress of the chess. I started when I was child, in my home village, see in picture (black and the white.)

Where I live, everybody play chess - old and young, fat and not fat, stupid and clever cookie. Photo of my grandfather playing the chess with my brother.

  • Back in Russia, I was GrandMistress of chess in my village, Korovapavlovsk. I learn at 2 years of the age, before I even learn the piano. I was best in my village, then when to famous chess school in Kharkov, and was Russian Chessmistress by 16. Then Stalin régime destroy my village Korovapavlovsk, all the people to the camps. I survive Kolyma camp by playing the chess. But now as an old woman my brain is not good and doctor says secondary dementia to Parkinsonov disease is making the play difficult and difficult every day. I still thank God that I have chess bad as it is: Bozhe moy, Spasibo Bogu, igrat v shakhmaty nye mogu! Xaxa.
