    Sibling rivalry really helps. My brother and I would play badminton for several hours because we both didn't want to admit that we got tired earlier than the other...and we both became very strong players. Represented my university, represented my district, and almost went national level.

    are we at least allowed to dislike chess influencers? there is nothing to like chess wise. it is a 1900 rated player playing chess. quality is abysmal. it is a bad painter painting. bad footballer playing football etc.... you can put a chess board in front of a woman and sell the image, but you cant force people to admire it. there is nothing to admire chess wise!

    claim like this by Botez raises obvious questions:
