How has Iron Chef helped you in your chess studies?

Please share notable experiences.

Iron Chef computer:  It's very fast because of the x4 core, but mostly i used for opening studies.Before I use Rybka 3 32 bit,now I use Firebird 1.2 64bit and stuying openings is much,much easier than before.

I'd like to thank Barangay Wesley very much for the graduation gift.

Jabezattack: Read a lot of chess books and work mostly with computers,by Chessbase and browse throgh some GM games.Play once in a while in tournaments and study your games.

Good luck to your chess career and hope you will have more success in that level.

Nag lalaro ako ng chess para malibang, to meet more friends, kaya wala na akong pag asang tumaas pa sa chess because I'm already old. Ni hindi ko alam bumasa ng chess moves. I just move the chess pieces. Ang number one hobby ko ay Ballroom Dancing kaya lagi akomg sumasayaw kahit matanda na ako. Kung tatanugin mo ako tungkol sa ballroom dancing ay masasagot ko.

I have a nephew who has a high rating in chess. His rating is 2559 at USCF. His name is Raymond Duque. Did you hear his name before? he was in the Varsity Team at Trinity College. He played against Eugene Torre several times before in the Philippines.

2 questions to Wesley:

-How is it going with your shopping for a coach? Who are your prospects so far?

-How is the negotiation for the proposed match vs. Giri going?

Thanks.

My question for GM Wesley is: do you think there will come a time when you will get tired of competitive chess and/or chess will become tired of you?

If that time comes, what do you think you will do to earn a living?
