Iceland Trip 2013: Yaacov in Iceland

by: Mike Murray and Mikhail Kruglyak

Hitting that magic age of thirty, I have concerns about my role in chess, my chosen profession. Many consider me a blitz specialist, not a top competitor in professional chess. I am a USCF Life Master, and my rating recently crossed the 2600 mark, but I lacked the IM and GM credentials. I could see the absence of international titles limiting my access to interesting invitational's with opportunities to play the world's best players.

Did you know that "Harmony" & "Colors" are concepts that you must master in order to fully comprehend chess?

I’ve been teaching chess for over a decade! All of my students benefit from my unique approach!

My methods are great for players of all ages and skill!
