Warming Up!!
Okay, I got started, now I need perseverance! Step 2 is reading! I organized my books before CNY and had my to-read list going again. After reading a game from Capablanca’s Best Chess Endings, I started to have some feel for chess again.
Meanwhile, sense of tactics are still not coming back.
More works have to be done!
Upcoming tournament:
Union Open 2010 on March 21!

Let’s get started!
Following the tragedy, I started to solve some puzzles today and I need to keep this up! Tournaments are coming at Penang here throughout March to April, I am yet to see the details of the events but I am sure I am playing!! The plan is to practice in these weekends tournament and excel during a FIDE rated event I am planning to play this year…
Today, I started step 1, there are other activities including studies of books, openings, analysis of own games and masters’ games and play a lot of online games!

Tragedy @ Chess
First of all congratulations to the winners at USM Team tournament 2010. My performance was disastrous scoring only 5/7 playing at the lower tables (mostly around table 10-20) and giving a free queen in the final round!!
No more excuses for myself. The only way to still continue to survive in chess is to start practising! It’s time to go home a draft out a training plan and throw away all my bad habits throughout last year…
