Chess is so deep, I simply feel lost.
With the Berlin I was able to set up a fortress that he could come near but not breach.
I go to bed at 4 a. m. Almost all chessplayers do.
When I speak of the beauty of a game of chess, then naturally this is subjective. Beauty can be found in a very technical, mathematical game for example. That is the beauty of clarity.
For us chess players the language of artist is something natural.
It made a big difference to my match stamina. I couldn't imagine I would have been so energetic during the match - it really gave me a welcomed extra boost!
