036 Jovanka Houska is a bright star. Anyone who’s watched her live can see she imbues her top-notch commentating at Chess24 with a joy for the game. Plus, she helps us club players more easily understand top-level play.
Jovanka is, of course, not only a star in the chess commentating world…
She’s also conquered the competitive scene as an eight-time British Women’s Chess Champion.
And her competitive spirit still burns. She regularly attends tournaments and works to raise her rating to previous heights.
In this episode, we discuss:
- Thoughts on her fellow co-commentators: David Howell, Simon Williams, & Kaja Snare.
- How she simplifies chess for an amateur audience
- What she needs to do bring her rating back up
