I have been playing correspondence chess without hesitation for seven years. Before here, I was warthog5 at the now-defuct Pacific Mall chess. I have several openings books which I read and use while playing. I generally opt for standard positional strategies in double e pawn openings - though a combination or the odd hyper-modern game will also amuse me - especially if I win! :o)
