I'm a tired, middle-aged man who discovered chess in December, 2018. I was on a long flight and downloaded the app called "really bad chess" which was entertaining enough that I decided to try the real thing and played my first game in January, 2019. I've become quite hooked and enjoy the game very much. I dedicate as much time as I can playing, analyzing, studying, etc. I have been working with a coach for a few months now and am happy with my improvement. I can play a decent rapid game but really struggle with blitz and beyond. I am now a USCF member and hope to play some OTB tournaments someday and keep going! Cheers, thanks for reading and good luck to all!
