Ep. 214 Luca (1875 USCF)
This week on Chess Journeys, I spoke with Luca about his chess journey. Luca has a healthy relationship with chess improvement and ratings. He seems most interested in enjoying the game and the experience of putting away devices and fully immersing himself in tournament games. We talked about resources that have helped his journey such as Chess Tactics from Scratch, Drill Your Chess Strategy (the mini plans book), and the Checkmate Patterns Manual. He also talked about the value of coaching, fitness, and his love of adult tournaments such as the ALTO in Charlotte. It was a great conversation with someone able to have a healthy approach to chess improvement.

Ep. 212 Alex (1700 Lichess)
This week on Chess Journeys, I spoke with Alex about his chess journey. Alex is a teacher that picked up chess while running a chess club. His goal is 2000 Lichess and the arena grand master title. He uses daily games and tactics as the primary parts of his training. He finds that daily games help him learn openings in a more organic way than memorization. Alex will be attending his first tournament soon and we discussed his hopes and preparation for the tournament.
