   Hello! My name is Zach Kasiurak. I am a National Master living in Columbus, OH, USA rated 2273 USCF and 2198 FIDE. I am seriously pursuing my chess career and looking to improve rapidly as a player and coach.

   I have created my blog to provide insight into ideas or themes I have discovered in my own games, games of my students, or in games of strong players. I hope to convey my personal struggles as well as successes in my own studies, my tournaments, and the coaching scenes.

 

Test Yourself

   Please refer to Prophylaxis, Part 1: The Best in the Business (http://www.chess.com/blog/zkman/prophylaxis-part-1-the-best-in-the-business2) for an explanation and analysis of the type of examples covered.

   In each exercise be sure to identify your opponent's ideas while simultaneously improving your position.
