Software Developer & Chess Enthusiast
Dutch software engineer building chess apps and sharing his chess journey on YouTube, from blunders to brilliant tactics.
You'll find me on YouTube with real games, messy blunders and all, plus the occasional sharp tactical win. If one of my apps makes your chess week a little more fun, I'm already happy.
On YouTube
On YouTube I play and break down my own games: online rapid toward 2200, and real FIDE tournament games on the road to 2000.
You see the real games too: the blunders, the comebacks, and the occasional sharp tactical win.
