Ep. 269 Misha (1900 USCF)
About this episode
This episode features an interview with Misha, discussing his journey from a 1000 to a 1900 USCF rating and various aspects of chess improvement.
This week on Chess Journeys, I spoke with Misha. He plays with me on Tuesday nights at the Santa Monica Bay Chess Club. We covered his improvement journey from 1000 to 1900. We covered many topics such as emotions in chess, the story of the game, and structured study. Misha provided book and tool recommendations. We talked about the value of ratings. We ended by discussing his expanded role at the chess club, and how important it is to contribute to organizations that you care about. 30% off of Chessbook: chessbook.com/?ref=kevin Chessiverse Code: DrSCULL20 Check out my new Substack: https://substack.com/@drscull My Chessable Course! https://www.chessable.com/chess-journeys-tactics-workbook-turning-knowledge-into-skill/course/268850/ Chessnut Link/Code: Code - KEVINSCULL https://www.chessnutech.com?sca_ref=7643464.HueBIKWTYE Get 20% off GM Noël Studer's courses with Coupon chessjourneys20 The Simplified Chess Improvement System: https://courses.nextlevelchess.blog/courses/simplified-chess-improvement-system?ref=04f5d8 My Road to 2200 Youtube series: https://youtu.be/BzKYDt5oBU8 Be sure to check out the Chess Journeys Merch Store!
