This player's comments:
I play chess
mainly for the fun of the game. It's great way to meet and
get to know people from around the world. I've made a few
good friends over the last few years.
I learned the moves as a youngster but only really began
to play regularly about eight or so years ago when I started
connecting to the Internet.
I'm always out to improve, currently studying The Ideas
Behind the Chess Openings by Fine and trying to find time
to annotate more games.
Some favourite chess quotes:
"Masters don't play the same game that we do--it just
happens to have the same rules as ours." ~ Steve Kelly,
Florida Chess Association
"My center is giving way, my Kingside is pushed back,
situation excellent, I am attacking." ~ Marshal Ferdinand
Foch
"Modern chess is too much concerned with things like
pawn structure. Forget it - checkmate ends the game."
~ Nigel Short
