Late 2 Chess

Bill Fischer

Interested in playing chess but always hear how it is difficult to learn especially if you are an adult? There is no better time to start playing chess than today, especially with all the resources available now!!! Let's learn this game together and prove that while we may never become a grandmaster, we can still have fun. We can have a great time learning the game and progress to whatever level we can get to and until someone invents a time machine, today is still the best day to start. My personal goal is to see how high I can get my rating, while being a parent and holding two jobs, and two podcasts etc. etc. just like many of you. My goal is currently 1,500 USCF and my stretch goal is 2,000 USCF. Lets see where we all can get to!

    L2C 014: Our Most Excellent Road to 1500 and Beyond - Part 1

    L2C 014:  Our Most Excellent Road to 1500 and Beyond - Part 1  It started as a discussion centered around a homage to Gotham Chess's Road to GM or Dina Belenkaya's Road to IM series.  We know we aren't good at chess, yet.  So, we brainstormed some really terrible names.  It started with "Road to"...., like Road to Mediocre Chess, Road to Decent Chess, Road to Not Terrible Chess, Road to Average Chess....  Then we went a bit more positive with Road to Our Best Chess.  Then we went a bit off the current path with Road to Chess Glory or the Nursing Home.  Perhaps we were losing the thread a bit.  A few of the more shareable ones were then Road to 1500 Elo, The Bumpy Road to 1500 Elo etc.  Then the good Dr Pop Pop came to an epiphany and what we are kind of going forward with "Senior Chess:  Dr Bill & Dr Pop Pop's Excellent Adventure to 1500 Elo.  Is it magic?  Have an opinion or a better idea.  Let us know at our Late2Chess@gmail.com.   So, what is this all about?  It's about our individual roads to improving at chess, hopefully to 1500 and maybe beyond.  Bill low key thinks 2000 is possible.  But what does he know, lol. Also, if you want to go into your "Road to....", drop us a line.  Who knows.  It may become a thing.  Wait, if you say it's going to be a thing, it can never become a thing.  Oh well, lol.  What did we miss?  Did we get something wrong?  Let us know at Late2Chess@gmail.com If you have any thoughts, topics and/or guest ideas, or solutions, please let us know.   Welcome to the board. We hope you enjoy the show!
