Adult Improver Pod: Chasing the WFM Title at 1900 FIDE w/ Kincső Toth
Show Notes

084 Hungary has a rich history of producing chess stars. Even at the adult improver level, you have the impressive accomplishments of our guest, Kincső Toth.

She’s already reached 1900 FIDE and is gunning for the Woman FIDE Master (WFM) title - which requires a 2100 rating plus norms.

And she does this all while earning her computer engineering degree in Budapest.

Kincső infuses even more chess into her life by moderating online events for Chess.com and running a Twitch channel with thousands of followers.

In this episode, we discuss:

  • What she changed in her chess to leap 250 FIDE rating points in just one year.
  • Are amateurs qualified to coach chess?
  • Will she pursue a full-time career in chess if she earns the WFM title?
