Some background
For those of you reading the blog and curious, here is my background. I am a Computer Science professor at a small liberal arts college in the southern U.S. I play chess online for fun, largely with students and colleagues from my college. I also help coach my eldest daughter's chess team at her elementary school.
I have a good understanding of the basics of chess, but I do not consider myself an expert by any means. I'm posting games on this blog for whoever would be interested in helping me analyze them.
