GMDannyShapiro

Hi everyone!

My name is Danny, and I am an intermediate/developing advanced chess player. Often in my games, I make at least a couple mistakes/blunders, which shows that I'm not perfect! I started playing chess in the sixth grade after a friend introduced me to the game. Since then, I have been a passionate chess player. @GothamChess is my favorite chess creator. I have been playing chess for five years! I also play the viola in my school orchestra and for fun. Some of my friends include @TheVenomWolf, @chessisfunforme, @WoodenShield99, @Shinyrayquaza123 and @jack111111111111111111112.

Biggest chess accomplishment: Beating 2300 Pratik Shriwas in a blitz match OTB!

I am a HUGE fan of classical music, and I fancy composers like Mozart, Beethoven, and Bach. 

And before you go, I know 10 things about you:

1. You are viewing this.

2. You are a male or female.

4. You read this sentence.

5. You didn't realize I skipped number 3.

6. You are thinking about how gullible you are.

7. You breathe.

8. Every second, you get older.

9. You think I mispelled something.

10. You are wrong. I actually spelled "something" correctly. 

11. You are on chess.com viewing this.

Congrats to Ding Liren for winning the 2023 FIDE World Chess Championship! Check him out here: @Chefshouse

I will NOT be playing daily chess as much primarily because of the slow, relaxed format.

Well, thanks for checking out my profile.

Until next time,
