Only he, who penetrates into the depth of the game, can express his personality in it.

I am convinced, the way one plays chess always reflects the player's personality. If something defines his character, then it will also define his way of playing.

I made a better decision in choosing my team. Sure, I had a bigger choice of players to choose from - but I couldn't have asked for a harder working group of players who did an incredible job.

Chess is a matter of daily training.

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!

For me art and chess are closely related, both are forms in which the self finds beauty and expression.

So basically it's very simple: to start with, if you want to win the match, you shouldn't be afraid of him. There are still many, many things to do, but above all this is the most important: Don't be scared of him!
