EXPERIENCE

”Experience is the name we gave to our mistake” Oscar Wilde

If that is the case i guess i have many ”experience” in chess, especially when it come to my chess training regime.

Kasparov, the one who simply know everything that needs to know in chess, still trained for at least 6 hours during his chess camp.It is normal for other GM to train for 8 hours a day that i suspect consist of finding novelties, preparing for specific opponents, polishing tactics/endgames etc

Well, i also trained for 6 hours a day. My training diet consist of one hour at chesscube (chess 960), one hour reading blogs, another one hour at yahoo (blitz), another one hour pondering what to post on my blog next thinking who should i flame on the shoutbox bla, bla, bla, 6 hours already...

Jahangir Khan, squash legend that went undefeated for 6 years, fitness drilling consist of running half marathon on daily basis, 5 days a week.

For me, i have successfully jogging like once a month...

Yasser Seirawan once mentioned in his book Winning Chess Brilliancies that there is this Go school in Japan that required all the junior students to memorize 100 classic Go games before studying other aspects of the game...Go junior students...memorized 100 classic games...

In chess I remembered only that Morphy’s Opera House game...

But i know, i cannot be them just as they cannot be me...
