Chess Journeys: Tales of Adult Improvement

This week on Chess Journeys, I spoke with Ty. He’s a senior sustainer, looking to hold onto his chess abilities. We talked about his long journey in chess, which involved a lot of real life forcing him to take breaks from chess. We discussed his program of tactics, working with the Chess Dojo, and how he handles openings. Our conversation was an interesting one that covered a lot of ground.

This week on Chess Journeys, I spoke with National Master Jeremy Kane. We covered a variety of topics such as chess study without focusing on improvement, defensive courses, and how to study and learn openings. My favorite part of the episode was picking his brain as a Chess.com employee. He talked about some of his favorite resources on the site.
