Grandmaster, Author, Chess Coach. Chess introduced me, as a kid, to a world that felt like pure thought. It’s a lonely and dangerous place. You get high there. Accolades offer the illusion of direction. I pursued philosophy and got some letters after my name; BA at. MA from the University of Jena. PhD from the University of Heidelberg. Then I returned to chess to get more letters, GM. You may contact me at gmkraai@gmail.com. Follow me on Twitter. Get a signed copy of Lisa, a chess novel. Best Read of 2013.

You don’t have to sit the knight on d2 down on a couch and ask him unpleasant questions: Why is everyone else so upset with you? But I didn’t do ...

https://jessekraai.com/2013/11/12/how-to-improve-your-chess
Grandmaster, Author, Chess Coach. November 12, 2013. How to improve your Chess. GMs get asked this question all the time.
