    24:32 that GM you beat is 52 year old Ketevan Arakhamia-Grant, born in Georgia but living in Scotland. She had a peak FIDE rating of over 2500 OTB, but she seemed to be slower to move than you. Good game!

    IMO, great players (like Shirov) are born with enhanced spatial abilities, they see the strong moves quicker and can see a little deeper into positions. Not something you can learn, you either have it or you don't. John, what are you're thoughts ?
