My favorite part:
"The main thing is: chess demands creativity. You always have to come up with something new, some means of surprising your opponent, as otherwise it's hard to beat even a player with a 2600-rating. "
I will have to be creative the next time I play a 2600 player :).
It was refreshing to see that Ponomariov has a healthy respect for reading chess books. I have been conditioned to top players ridiculing books. It was also surprising that he does not like Dvoretsky's books.
