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. 74 Jesse (900 USCF)
This week on Chess Journeys, I spoke to Jesse. He’s a dedicated improver who joined during the Queen’s Gambit craze. We talked about his journey from strictly online blitz player to his current status as only playing OTB. Jesse carves out about an hour per day for study including mostly tactics and endgame work. He talked extensively about first OTB experiences and the importance of working with a coach. Jesse also discussed the value of endgame work even at lower rating bands.
