All lessons taught by Corey Tolbert:
Growing up in West Philadelphia taught me many important characteristics such as cunning, resilience, and will. These characteristics are what made me the player I am today. At 7 years old I fell in love with the game of chess. My grandfather taught me the game and we played thousands of games during my childhood. Along the way, I became the co-High School Champion of Philadelphia.

After over 75,000 games of chess played, I am always ready for more. I look for every opportunity to exhibit, learn, play, and teach the game that has been so great to me over the years. My goal is to play 200,000 games in my life and I am well on my way there. And if I happen to become the best blitz player in the history of mankind along the way, well that would make it all the better.
