I spoke with Candidate Master and renowned chess educator Brian Karen. He is one of the most active teachers in the country. Some of our talking points include:
- Tournament players vs. hobbyists
- A rating system based on norms, rather than individual games
- Studying chess
- Does preparing for a specific opponent actually make a difference at the club level?
