oops sorry about that

chessmaster102

one thing i've learned from this is that the younger siblings tend to be stronger probably because they have there older sibling who they can always practice with till they got as strong as them then surpassed them idk its just intresting that for the most part the younger siblings who are younger by a 2 years or less seem to end up being stronger

I have a brother who is 4 years older than me and i found that chess was one of the few areas where i had the edge over him. Prehaps it is losing to the sibling in other areas which makes a chess player want revenge on the chessboard.

Have you ever played two people related to each other in the same tournament? I played the He twins in Las Vegas, they have similar habits lol, and they are identical, I can barely tell the difference. Daniel captures pieces more elegantly, he takes the piece off the board then replaces it with his own piece, Samuel takes pieces, like touches the piece and knocks over the piece he wants to capture. They both have an annoying habit of looking from your perspective every 5 seconds. I always looked from their perspective whenever they did it to me, I could tell they were irked. Sealed

Oh, also in Reno, my coach played FM Bryant and beat him in a nice game, but then got crushed by his stepfather who had come to take REVENGE!
