I am a Czech grandmaster born in 1985. I have written a book My Chess World (Thinkers Publishing, 2020), containing my games, essays and observations. I am also a co-author of the book The Secret Ingredient (Quality Chess, 2021), which has been written mostly by a Slovak GM Ján Markoš.
My new book Lessons on Uncompromising Play (Thinkers Publishing, 2024) is about to appear very soon, I am lucky to have finished it after all! It contains my games and game fragments, grouped into many chapters, equipped with useful general recommendations and interesting training questions. I eventually finished it after a three-year-break. I became very depressed at the beginning of 2021. Things got better relatively quickly, but once I stopped writing, getting back to this work became very difficult. Luckily the book is there now.
I almost never play long strings of games here, mostly just a few games to get into shape. I am mostly playing some nonsense here, but sometimes it is high-quality nonsense!
This is the nicest mate which I have ever delivered on chess.com: FormerProdigy vs. Mikhail_Bryakin | Analysis - Chess.com
And here are a few other nice games:
Chess: penguingm1 vs FormerProdigy - 57906012877 - Chess.com
Chess: FormerProdigy vs nissou-ach - 61614647447 - Chess.com
I am a big fan of Chess960 as well, but mostly play it elsewhere. I would be glad to play some blitz Chess960 games against other GMs from time to time.
Please forgive me for rejecting or even blocking friendship requests. It is nothing personal, I am just not a big fan of social media and would find it strange to have hundreds of internet friends whom I don't really know, when I often lack time to meet my long-time friends in person. I also often disable messages here to concentrate on other things, typically on my OTB tournaments. That said, I generally like other people (like you)!
Thank you for your understanding!
