I was 4 months - and 3 months later I'm still carving up the GMs.

I'm 44 years old and I started to play when I was 12.

Can we remove AUSSIE_PINOY's blatant advertisement? No need for that in this thread.

I was 13-14 when a friend taught me, and I played at school and in my free time. Then quit a few years later. I took it up again when I was 31. Never got any good at it, but I enjoy a lot!

I am 28 and just started learning how to play chess a few days ago. Hope it’s not too late! I am not very good with memorizing tactics and all that, but I guess it will get better with time and experiences 😜 Can you guys share what is the best way to learn about chess?

Millrace2020 your memory isn't very good. On your pfp you state you were 6 when you started. Good luck , you will need it!
