From The Detroit News: Preparing to play 46 chess matches at the same time Friday night, Atulya Shetty admitted he was a little nervous. After all, he’s only 14. The chess whiz has played other multiple matches, but never with this many players. “I always feel nervous when I go into a match,” he said. “After a little while, I get over it.” He may only be 14 but, chess-wise, it’s an old 14. Damn, reading about this makes me feel pretty dumb every time I open the Chess program on my Mac and get frustrated after five minutes, turn off the computer in a fit of anger and watch Buffy the Vampire Slayer reruns all afternoon.
