Preparation day 5: English with black, walking
Today I solved a few checkmate puzzles and then started to search for study material against the english opening with black.
I share a few checkmates:
I found these books helpful:
Grandmaster Repertoire 3 - The English Opening vol. 1
Mastering the Chess Openings, volume 3
There is a small lake close to our apartment, just 5 minutes drive. We had a nice walk there in the evening with Eszter. We saw ducks and met a dog. Eszter was very happy and me too.
In the afternoon I visited one of my friends who helps me to find my purpose and goals and develop my inner and outer power. He helps me to prepare for the tourney.
He suggested me to watch the Rocky film series.
I watched the first one last week and I enjoyed it. I think in the next one will be more about fighting and preparation which I can use in my life too.
I wish you a great day! See you tomorrow!
