A big thanks goes to my chess mentors, both alive and those who are no longer with us.

"Chess is a game by its form, an art by its content and a science by the difficulty of gaining mastery in it. Chess can convey as much happiness as a good book or work of music can. However, it is necessary to learn to play well and only afterwards will one experience real delight." - Tigran Vartanovich Petrosian
Greetings! My name is Rich and I have been a chess enthusiast since age 6. I got attracted to chess when I chanced upon a game featured in a newspaper sports article. It read, "Tigran Petrosian- Boris Spassky 10th game 1966 title match". I was totally in awe as to how a player could sacrifice his rooks and still win!

I first played correspondence chess back in 2000. Since then, I have gotten the feel of testing my chess skills in an environment where I have more time to think.

kudubux: <Branko> Believe it or not, I have tried that setup in blitz games, adding the maneuver Ra2 and Qa1. Confused opponents would then be overly eager to punish my flamboyant opening and end up having too weaknesses on the Queenside.

kudubux: Thanks <FSR> for the game although that went too awful for me. A carnage, I think.

kudubux: Speaking of Gameknot, they sent me mail saying I may be cheating because I'm allegedly using multiple accounts on a single computer. I lost games on time because they restricted my account. I'm logging in at Internet cafes. Could it be other Gameknot users use the same computer? ...

Jan-06-13 Kamsky vs Karpov, 1996

kudubux: My favorite game of the match. Normally, the c8-Bishop is a problem piece in this type of setup but Karpov skillfully frees the Bishop and puts it in the best square and diagonal! Notice the g2-pawn being hounded up to no end.
