A podcast dedicated to the journey of adult chess improvement. Each week a guest will join me to discuss what has worked for them, what hasn't worked as well, and the status of their journey.
Ep. 301 Thijs (2150 USCF / 2000 FIDE)
This week on Chess Journeys, I spoke with Thijs. He’s recently moved to the United States from Belgium. We discussed the European chess scene and how different it is. We talked about his surprise at how many children are at U.S. tournaments. We discussed chess improvement, he advocates for reviewing your games. Thijs talked about nearly making master right after his move and dealing with the challenges of pursuing the title.
