I'm a dad that plays chess. My kids think I'm pretty good.
Recapping a local tournament yesterday: 15 minutes with 3 second delay. Went 1-2 overall.

My openings have gotten better but I lose positional advantages in the middle game. Great learning experience!

2-1 final standings. All in all a very fun way to spend the morning!

My son went 3-0 and has politely told me "I did better than you!"

Checked into my first uscf rated tournament in ~20 years. Brought my son too! Let's see who scores better today.
