I am from the Philippines but currently living in the US. I used to play chess a lot during my High School and College days. I was with the School's varsity team until I graduated from college. After graduation though, it's all about pursuing my career and learning related skills so I rarely played chess during those years. And when I got married in 1993, it's all family life and work and I was away from chess since then.
I resumed playing chess again when we moved here in the US in 1999 but mostly online games via Internet Chess Club (ICC). I'm glad I also found Chess.com and I'm again able to play chess anytime I want to.
I am more of a positional type of player but oftentimes, when I’m in the right mood, I would try to complicate things and play wild and crazy moves especially on blitz to practice on my tactics or simply just to have fun, win or lose... 😉.
Looking forward to meeting new friends and play this noble game that we all love.
Mabuhay!
