Ep. 269 Misha (1900 USCF)

This week on Chess Journeys, I spoke with Misha. He plays with me on Tuesday nights at the Santa Monica Bay Chess Club. We covered his improvement journey from 1000 to 1900. We covered many topics such as emotions in chess, the story of the game, and structured study. Misha provided book and tool recommendations. We talked about the value of ratings. We ended by discussing his expanded role at the chess club, and how important it is to contribute to organizations that you care about.
