The center of the chessboard is a magnet, which pulls to itself all the pieces. Therefore the most beautiful and amazing moves, for me, are those with which a piece, counteracting the gravitational force of the center, suddenly fly to the edge of the board.

Chess is not Mathematics, where ten is always more than one in chess the King with a pawn can beat opponent's King with all pieces if they are placed badly.

Coaching secrets? I don't think I got any. The main secret - love for chess.

The center of the chessboard is a magnet, which pulls to itself all the pieces.
