Hello everyone! My name is Robert, Canadian, live in Ontario. My nickname comes from a novel called "Zanoni" written by Edward Bulwer-Lytton. I tend to play slowly, do not do well in blitz. I am always learning. Sometimes lessons come at a great price, I pick myself up and continue. I enjoy the game, winning or losing is not so important. Chess is a battle of ideas and if someone wins it does not make the person smarter, simply that the idea was better.
