I play online and study like crazy the week before the day before is a review of what I know that day I sleep from about 6p.m. to one a.m. then sleep on and off until fully rested than like I'm doing now calming my nerves for the tournament. studying tactical positions and playing chess is the best warm up you can get before the tournament.

I always go through a full stretch and warm up exercise before all important games. If my opponent sees me and is intimidated then all the better.

para sakin....1 day b4 the tournament proper rest...then jog and exercise on that day b4 the tournament. Remenber "A Sound Body Is A Sound Mind" and 5 min b4 the game start take 10 deep breath...para mabawasan ang kaba sa paglalaro...

I'm trying to get into the habit of getting a good night sleep, solid exercise, and a few tactical puzzles the day before I play any chess. And since I play some form of chess almost every day...

For me have good relaxation and enough sleep. Walk around and free your mind from any worries of losing the game.
