Ask me anything related to CHESS. Give me a tricky situation,ask me any chess rule, or some tips to defeat your opponent, or any hidden moves. I'll give you the best answer available. I dont consult any software. I have my own way to analyze and i give you my mind. Please dont ask me any championship dates etc. For that better consult FIDE website.
