@chestas @aarblaster are you professional chesser or is there also a day job?
I teach chess in schools and privately. I've been doing this since I moved to Australia
@chestas @aarblaster in the Netherlands I hear chess is immensely popular in high school since the Queen's Gambit - is it like that over there too?
Not so much I think. I haven't seen that much publicised explosion, though I don't know about online players from Australia.
Btw, I played a tournament in Amsterdam in about 1989, and still have some friends there who I keep in touch with
