Dear parents,coaches and students of the game: Please "qaGBenjoy" (the previous word 'enjoy' was written by my cat, Whiskey, to express his excitement!) my stories, poetry and lessons. I sincerely hope that you learn a great deal about the game of chess which I love so dear. I have categorized the lessons so that coaches can teach the lessons and assign awards to their students based on the completion of the levels. I use this approach for my own players. Again these lessons are only meant to introduce the subject matter to the student. It is up to the coaches and parents to look for these concepts in the student's games so that they can assign the awards accordingly. In chess, a lesson not practiced is a lesson not learned. - Manny Paddy Fealy (and Whiskey) Chessville welcomes The Great Pawn Hunter (and his cat, too!). Manny Paddy Fealy and Whiskey have put together a great amount of excellent training material at their site, and we encourage you to visit early & often. As an enticement, we offer you below a small taste of what awaits you. Return here to see what new material Manny Paddy Fealy and Whiskey have to share, and for a direct link to The Great Pawn Hunter!
A Note of Encouragement from Manny:
You know, everyone goes through slumps. It happens to me too... We can let our losses get the better of us or we can try to learn from them. That old expression "If you get a few lemons, make lemonade!" is still true. I make mistakes all the time...no super powers yet anyway. Many times, slumps happen when one has learned a little to many chess ideas without executing the ideas in games. Here is an example: I follow the lesson I have read and I am good for a few moves, but then...that move comes along... where I am in a new situation?..."What do I do next" I ask myself...the lesson didn't teach me about this! But there is no answer. The result...a loss! That is why I don't want you to memorize anything. Try to understand the moves. The only way to put these ideas solidly into your head is to play, play, and play to test out the new ideas. Would you buy a car without test driving it? Well, you should test new ideas before you blindly accept them. What I really want to do is give you a little encouragement... to tell you that, it happens to all people. If you keep your nose to the grindstone, like The Great Pawn Hunter, and really try hard to learn, with simple clarity and a lot of playing, you can bring yourself to a true understanding. Does this make sense to you?...let me know your thoughts. Try hard, keep practicing, and find a good move! Manus Patrick Fealy

I truly want you to become a better player.
