Ep. 180 Tony - Chess Sharkz (2000 USCF)

This week on Chess Journeys, I spoke with Tony. He’s a busy family man and co-founder of the Chess Sharkz. In addition to constant streaming, Tony squeezes in tactics whenever possible. We discussed the claim that everyone under 2200 should be focusing on tactics, Tony’s career in chess, his move to Charlotte, and why he plays so many Chess tournaments. We also talked about tournament preparation and why it’s so important to play in them.  Be sure to check out the Chess Sharkz at: https://www.twitch.tv/chesssharkz https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCBoSFdAEsr0vXGSQqEoN4fg Chessnut Link/Code: Code - KEVINSCULL https://www.chessnutech.com?sca_ref=7643464.HueBIKWTYE Get 20% off GM Noël Studer's courses with Coupon chessjourneys20 Beginner Chess Mastery for players below 1200 Chesscom / 1400 Lichess -> https://courses.nextlevelchess.blog/courses/beginner-chess-mastery?ref=04f5d8 Next Level Training for anyone trying to train better and more efficiently -> https://courses.nextlevelchess.blog/courses/next-level-training?ref=04f5d8 Use this link to purchase Next Level Chess: https://courses.nextlevelchess.blog/courses/next-level-training?ref=04f5d8 My Road to 2200 Youtube series: https://youtu.be/BzKYDt5oBU8 Be sure to check out the Chess Journeys Merch Store!
