039 Another chess journey update from your favorite podcast host! Every few months, I serve up a solo show that offers my latest insights and struggles, all from my hard-working path toward improvement. But this isn’t just an audio “chess diary.” I try to bring everything back to lessons we can all use and learn from. Hope you enjoy!
In this episode:
- Why emotions caused an avoidable & heartbreaking loss in my recent OTB tournament.
- Does a recent 200-point blitz rating increase suggest my chess will soon improve in other areas?
- The four biggest contributors to my chess improvement over the past 18 months.
- How OTB tournaments are fueling my fire to become a better chess player.
