I have enjoyed chess for over 20 years; however, I've never taken the time to really improve my game. With more time in my schedule now, I'm hoping to learn more fundamentals and begin to understand the game of chess at a deeper level. Although I appreciate the deep analysis that can be made in this online setting, I don't enjoy waiting several days for an opponents move. My invitations will likely always be 1 day timeouts. I tend to be impatient at most everything in my life (perhaps that's why I've never improved my chess game). Nonetheless, I'm looking forward to learning from this community.

In the end, I enjoy a good game of chess and expect to find more than enough competition here.
