Road to 2200

⌊ I now focus solely in rapid chess, and I will put more emphasis on 30-minute games in order to prepare for OTB tournaments ⌋

♦ My objective is to reach, by the end of 2024:

                            2200

                           2000

                            2000

♦ To improve at chess from 1100 to 2100 (I have never been rated lower, so I can't provide advice for players under 1000), I have used these youtube channels and read these books (note that watching live commentary of games in the official chess.com broadcast was also of tremendous help):

⌊ YOUTUBE CHANNELS ⌋

› Agadmator's Chess channel

› Gothamchess

› Daniel Naroditsky

› GM Hikaru

› ChessDojo

⌊ BOOKS ⌋

› Silman's Chess Odyssey

› Desert Island chess puzzles (all of them)

› How to reassess your chess

› Silman's Complete Endgame Course

› My System

› Recognizing your opponent's resources ∼ currently reading

◊ I put every resource in ascending order for how hard they are (at the top = easy)

Thanks for reading and good luck with your chess gains !
