My name is Ismail Zohny, I'm 60 years old and I live in Cairo-Egypt, I started to play chess when I was at the university.
I was playing chess for fun and I took part in a very few tournaments and I won the Doha Club Championship when I was woking in Doha-Qatar
I'm an old member at ICC and when I first joined the site I was playing too much blitz games even at the office!! and I also played at STTOURNEY every Tuesday for a long time till I won it and then I stopped as I didn't like the new system and also I started to play at team4545league.
All the credit for my chess improvement goes to Terte, my captin at Team4545League as he was the first one to advise me to give each move it's time and to stop playing blitz and following his advice my chess play was much better.
I also have a great chess trainer ECP, my standard rating went up from 1800 plus to 2290 in just one year of training.
I enjoy playing chess on ICC very much and I think it's the best site on the net. their Game of the day, Game of the week and all their videos has helped me a lot to improve my chess level.
