    The road to GM is even harder than b4 since in this day and age so many players are grossly underrated
    In a country like China, many 2200s or even players below 2000s, are quite difficult to beat even for a 2400
    It's just so easy to lose rating points
    But hard can also be a good thing if you manage to get it, it's going to be more rewarding.
    Good luck on your journey to GM!

    Hey! I just made it to 2000 elo and watched this video. I’m currently 17 and I started my journey around 3 years ago or so. My biggest win is against a 2300 elo. Do you think I’ll ever have a chance to become an IM or GM with the correct training at my current state?

    My sons age 7 & 9 are currently about 1500.
    With 3 hours of training daily + monthly tournaments, how big is their chance to become GM in 10 years ?
    Closer to 5% or 20% ?

    • @YFchess
      @YFchess  10 дней назад +1

      That's great to hear! They are off to a good start. Difficult to tell at such an early age but if they have a passion for the game I'd guesstimate closer to 20% if they keep at it!
