I am so glad I have the opportunity to honor chess coach NM Rene Phillips. Coach Rene is a Georgia transplant via New Orleans and Hurricane Katrina. He is a tremendous talent and has personally instructed chess students all over the country. I have spoken with Coach Rene off and on for over a year about how we could work together promoting chess. This collaboration promises to be exciting. Below you will find a video Coach Rene produced for his chess students over at ChessVideos.tv I have mentioned chessvideos.tv in previous posts, but I can’t say too much about them. They have a tremendous resource that continues to grow and will become the Chess version of Youtube. Please visit them soon.

I was visiting another blog and came across a comment/question about how to learn board visualization. That is how to see the chess board in your mind. It is a good question and a skill that most chess masters possess. I am of the belief that the more things you have in common with chess masters the more likely you will be one. Association/Assimilation. But I digress.
