>Playing white
Get to play my pet openings, having a good time with weir lines

>Playing black
Have to play the most boring game ever just countering white's cookie cutter opening and waiting for them to make a minor mistake
How do I counter this? Is there some opening I can use to open up the position somewhat fast without ending up in a significant disadvantage?
These positional nightmares are sucking the life out of me.

he let it die because he wasn't the OP now he got to make one with his waiu and magically the thread gets a post every 5 minutes, either he is the pastebin tranny or someone with the same kind of insanity

>>
>>573264698
He's a euro, responsible for bumping it at night. When he saw it was a funny op he got scared of being arrested and being sentenced to be raped to death by muzzshits so he let it die, its his fault
>>
>>573264698
its not blaming him, its pointing out that this thread is so dead that no one else bothers to post in it, so when he gets pissed off at the OP and decides not to do his usual 24/7 samefagging then the thread just dies
>>
Stjepan update: long line of prep, when his opponent played one new move in the deep middlegame, he got scared of the taking a pawn (best move) because he misevaluated the position 1.5 moves after that and got a losing position (but held a draw)
>>
>>573264594
danish gambit. that one always gets the panties dropping. alternatively the king's gambit if you're looking for something a bit sounder.
>>
>>573267002
i feel so bad for hp because if he just spent the last five years grinding tactics and calculation like an insane person he'd probably be a candidate master by now. instead he's cucking himself with endless opening prep that will leave him a hardstuck 2000 forever.
>>
>>573270339
We need to keep commenting on his videos.. we can save him
>>
>>573267002
That was a pretty good game by him honestly. I'm not really sure why he chose that prep, because to me, it looked no fun for black, but I guess it worked for him.

He's so dependent though on being able to blitz out a dozen moves of prep to kill the game though. Holding that draw against a 2200 was unironically impressive, but you just know he wouldn't have lost this game if he hadn't memorized 18 moves of theory.

He's basically just gambling every game that he gets something he has studied lol
>>
>>573275382
i think it might be too late brah. he's pushing 40 and his rating hasn't gone up in 5 years. realistically he'll just double down on memoorizing even more and once that inevitably doesn’t work out he'll retire so he can pump out more opening videos.
>>
>>573263379
I don't know. If I remember right the death since the melties of the night of the 3rd has been a very pure death, very little samefagging and no larpovposting, the thread would simply drift to the end of page 10 and be bumped by someone like thememeteam. I don't think it was just that last thread which had been spared the samefaggotry. But I could be remembering incorrectly.

Do they play the normal perk or the czech perk? Boomers at my club are fond of the czech perk, it made me respect the opening a lot more especially in blitz. Move order is super important in the perk and the czech variation can easily throw people off.

Current amateur chess is infested with modern vidyagaymer culture. Widespread adoption of top level meta choices among shitters only came around in the late aughts/early 2010s. The way normie players interacted with games (both trad and vidya) before that was just different.

https://youtu.be/HFkHRtBUeKo?t=1400

lol Stjepan lost because he miscalculated, realized it after he grabbed the piece, and the lost because of the touch rule
>>
>>573383624
because it's clearly referencing the schizo taking offense to an Eline picture and thinking it must be the pbt bogeyman

>>573380165
i was just thinking about this like a week ago. even in a game like chess where the meta for top players (the so called "best" openings) makes virtually no difference for the vast majority of amateur players, people still obsess over it like it's what will decide most of their games, when that couldn't be further from the truth. it's really bizarre. i mean every damn forum now is filled with "what's the best x" questions, when the answer is there is no best x for most of what those people are looking for and they just need to pick something.

you and your opponent agreed to a game under certain rules to be followed. to break these rules is to deceive your opponent, to grant yourself some unfair advantage. it can be argued whether the rule is a good one in the first place but in this case to not follow it changes his chances drastically for the better. the victim of the crime is your opponent. i have to ask, if you saw your opponent ignore touch-move would you call them out on it? or would you stick to the "victimless crime" idea?

also thanks for the (You) it made me feel good inside

>>
>>573396082
What's the unfair advantage? As an online only player I straight up think the rule is retarded.

>It's a victimless crime.
your opponent would be the victim of your cheating, what you meant is it's a crime without witnesses,
how brown do you have to be to find being honorable inconceivable?
>>
>>573396082
>>573396682

but I feel like touch move exists just so that you don't start faking moves to see your opponent's reaction or to annoy him, if he does not see you touching the pieces then how is he affected?
>>

>It's unfair because some sort of Slavic honorabaru autism
o-okay

>you and your opponent agreed to a game under certain rules to be followed. to break these rules is to deceive your opponent, to grant yourself some unfair advantage. it can be argued whether the rule is a good one in the first place but in this case to not follow it changes his chances drastically for the better.
it can't be explained more clearly than this, if you don't get it you never will, you probably come from a brownoid culture that sees honesty as stupidity and dishonesty as a virtue one 4chan post could never rewrite that
>>
>>573396858
i don't think i need to discuss the actual purpose of the rule in order to make the argument i wish to
even though i do believe that the rule is also meant to make one's movements more purposeful and thought through and discourage indecisiveness and in a way make the game more difficult, less drawish, less casual or whatever, this isn't necessary
the point is that if your opponent is abiding by this rule and you are not then you have an advantage. in this particular case the advantage is very clear, his position becomes playable should he not make the blunder, and even if this is not the intention of the rule to break it here is unfair to your opponent

i'm on the opposite end of the spectrum. unless you’re playing for money, i think it's silly to hold someone to the touch move rule. i know it’s an official rule and all, but we're just two part time wood pushers at the end of the day. if you think of a better move before you've actually let go of the piece, go for it man. i'm just here to play some fun chess. once you've made your move though, there's no taking it back. kinda like how it is online.

>one ip arguing with himself
samefag is getting desperate
>>
>>573397991
you joke but I unrionically say it before adjusting even when my opponent isn't there and I think not doing so would be soft cheating
>>
>>573397991
im reconsidering and i think im talking past your argument a bit
i have two questions
>if the arbiter were before you while your opponent were away and you touched a piece and decided to move another one, would you expect them to intervene?
and
>do you believe your opponent would follow the touch move rule even in your absence?

if your answer to both of these questions are "no" then the disagreement is in an understanding of the rule and the players' understanding of it
you would be disagreeing with my premise that you and your opponent agreed to a game under which this rule would be applied and instead you would suggest that you agreed only to apply touch move in one another's presence, or more accurately that there is no "touch move" out of one another's presence
you would not be suggesting that the rule _should not_ be applied when the opponent is not observing _even though_ they rightly believe it to be applied but rather that the rule is not understood to be applied in that case by you, the arbiter or the opponent

if your anwer to the first is no but the second is yes then you would be arguing that the opponent simply doesn't understand how the rules are to be followed
>>
>>573398907
I hope you yell it very loudly in case your opponent sees you touch a piece from across the room and tries to claim you didn’t say it because they didn’t hear you say it.
>>
>>573399018
1. I think the arbiter might intervene but I'd judge him to be autistic if he did.
2. no, but I don't care about it. I also wouldn't leave the board so it would not happen.
I really don't care about the rule that much in general, like >>573398285 if you're not clearly abusing it I would not say anything

ok so my understanding of what you believe is that your opponent would also be acting under the same rules as you, and would not be following touch-move in your absence. the arbiter would not be correct to apply the touch-move rule in this situation. and you at no point falsely represent yourself as following this conception of the touch-move rule that I am espousing, but rather you are following the rule as it was intended and as it is understood by wider chessdom. if that is your position more or less then I would say you are acting morally, but i would just disagree with your premises that that's what the rule means and is what you agree to when you sign up for a tournament or play a game under "touch-move."

Let's say, hypothetically, you tried to move your pawn two squares past mine. Now, obviously, I wouldn't be able to take it since it's adjacent to my pawn. But, for the sake of argument, let's say I took the pawn anyways. Now, obviously this is cheating, but this is the future that FIDE wants to force on us.

In the FIDE rulebook I'm supposed to either cheat and take the pawn or crush my cock with a brick. It's ludicrous.

All those hours of prep just to throw away the entire advantage the very first move he's on his own lol

What's the point in practicing the positions against a bot if it doesn't help him in the middle game? All his losses from the tournament are like this, +1 out of the opening, +0 in the Middle Game, losing after the tactical phase. Why keep focusing on bespoke openings if that's not his issue?

He needs to retool his training to be hammering tactics. It's a joke to lose to 1800s tactically if he wants to be a grand master.

I tried a couple of chess games and I always, ALWAYS make the same mistake: I try to close in on the enemy queen and then garrot him like a noose, and I end up ending in a draw because I squeeze too tight and he can't move. This has happened too often to my liking.

i meant how long have you spent playing chess. i've been playing since spring.
and i can tell you that i am an almost complete shitter and often hate myself for the basic oversights i make. but i am learning. and i've played opponents who had 10000 games finished on their account and they were shitters as bad as me.

>I try to close in on the enemy queen
i guess you mean the king, lol.
if you've got unlimited time and a single recurrent mistake, you can just double check before each endgame move if you're not gonna stalemate the fucker by accident.

I'm trying to get better at over the board chess but can only go to a handful of tournaments a year and can't commit time to go to a club since I have a wife and kids. I like learning about chess and playing online but I feel like I'm starting to stagnant around 1200ish online (currently 600 OTB, provisional rating was 490 last year) and I'm not really sure where to go from here? I've gotten pretty comfortable with a handful of pet openings and enjoying doing puzzles and tactics, but I'm not sure what to focus on to improve outside of playing more games and learning more theory as I can. Are there certain books I should read or strategies that I should focus on? Is there a certain way I should analyze my games outside of leaning on Stockfish? Should I get a coach to help me get over this hump? I want to see how far I can really go with this as a hobbyist; most of the things I've read say that 1600ish OTB is difficult but attainable, but I would be content even being a ~1200 OTB.

Have we ever had a titled /chess/ player? I wouldn't be surprised if we had a CM at the least, NM or FM maybe, very doubtful about an IM or GM though.
>>
>>573506756
I've got a wife and a wage but no kids. I'm 2000 chesscom and about the same USCF

At that level, it's mostly tactics still to improve. I would recommend doing Lichess or ChessTempo puzzles during your work lunch break or during down time. It's free and easy and on your phone and easy to start and stop if needed.

I struggled with seeing the board in 3D vs 2D. The only way to fix it is to play more 3D. Casual chess club is good. You can also set up a board and play an online game, just make the moves on the board and only look at the screen to get the opponent moves. Just don't cheat by moving the pieces to calculate.

The longer time controls you play, the better. The more games you play, the better. If you can, 1 OTB tournament per month or so will help a lot. Make sure to analyze them as well, this so very valuable.

Don't worry too much about openings. You should spend about 10% of your time on them. Whenever you play online games, just check the first move you make that the engine doesn't like and this will slowly build them up for you.

It's really just a matter of how much time you can spend on chess. The more you play, the more you will improve

Myself, a mid-wit who spends too much time on openings, sees it like this:
>If I can gain a favorable position out of the opening, I'll be much more likely to find tactics and convert my edge into a win.
Also
>If I can hammer out 10 to 15 moves of theory, I'll be comfortable knowing I'm playing "correctly" while my opponent likely won't be as comfortable.

It's very simple though. Just analyze your games. When you lose, is it because you were losing out of the opening and never recovered or miscalculated on like move 30?
>>
>>573491682
my 2 cents: he treats every advantage or weakness (however small) like the game is over, "just resigns". But then after the opening the evaluation swings from -1 to 0.00 to +1 and back every move so it's kinda funny.

>>573520375

There isn't one. Somewhere down the line he convinced himself he could simplify chess and gain a massive advantage if he shifted most of his focus on opening preparation, and now he is paying for his mistakes. It's why he's been stuck at 2000 FIDE for the past 5 years now.

FIDE SHOULD LIFT THE BAN ON KRAMNIK IMMEDIATLY

DANYA WAS A METHEAD AND OD'D AND DEAD

PROBABLY THEY REALIZED THEY CAN'T BEAT KRAMNIK WITH THEIR FILTHY LIES SO THEY SACRIFICED CHEATER DANYA.

THEY SAID TO DANYA: WE KNOW YOU ARE A CHEATER BUT OUR PR DEP TOLD US IF IT LEAKS THAT YOU ARE A CHEATER IT'S A BAD LOOK FOR US, SO WE KEEP IT UNDER THE RUG.

BUT WHEN THEY REALIZED KRAMNIK IS BEATING THEM IN THEIR OWN PR GAME, THEY TOLD DANYA: EITHER YOU'LL KILL YOURSELF OR WE'LL JUMP THE KRAMNIK BANDWAGON AND DESTROY YOUR LEGACY.

ONE LAST TIME HE TRIED TO PLAY WITHOUT STOCKFISH, GET REKTED BY INDIAN KIDS WITH 2300 RATING. REALIZED HE HAS NO CHOICE, KILLED HIMSELF WITH METH.

I just started doing 1001 problems for club players, I can already tell the quality is higher than online puzzles but I'm wondering if knowing the type of tactic beforehand isn't a bit counterproductive
I know it's up to me to not do meta thinking like "ok what piece is the defender to remove/deviate" and just approach them normally but it's not so easy to ignore that knowledge.
Also I love when it says what was played in the game instead, it's a nice way to flatter the reader "I found something karpov didn't :D"

I, for one, think that discussions of the attractiveness of women in chess distract from what is important which is their contributions to the game. I think that both praise and degradation on the basis of attractiveness both reinforce an outdated view of women's worth and place in society in general and in chess in particular. I will note that I very rarely see consideration of these women's games in their own right, and most often the discussion regarding them has either solely to do with their physicality or has only to do with the actual chess that they play and their interaction with the chess world insofar as they are attractive chess players and praise of their game can contribute to praise of them in general.

>I, for one, think that discussions of the attractiveness of women in chess distract from what is important which is their contributions to the game.
I stopped reading there, but you are way off in your assesment.
You see women are the fairer sex, they are there to look good and be lusted over. Chess is no different. Female contributions are not meaningless since they are not as strong as male players, no woman ever has been number 1 in the world..
So women in chess are there to look good and thot around. Their gameplay is not the main focus.
>>

>are not meaningless
are meaningless*

>>
>>573614060
>>573614341
I do not buy into this idea that because women _are_ perceived as more attractive than men that we should only value them for that thing itself. Knowing that there are women who pursue intellectual accomplishment, that there are women who want to do something more than being attractive I don't like the idea of a world where we will only ever appreciate them for their beauty should they possess it. I also do not agree that women being weaker than men at chess generally suggests we should act in this way either. Obviously there are whores in chess as in anything but let whores be whores and chessplaying women be chessplaying women, right?

As much as I can't stand this kike... you have to appreciate how much he's done to promote chess, even if it was just to line his own pockets. A couple weeks ago I was playing this little Chinese immigrant kid at my local club who couldn't have been older than 10. When he sacced his rook he yelled "AND HE SACRIFICES... THE ROOOOOK" in English just like Levy. It was kinda crazy seeing something like that in a small chess club here in Europe. Really makes you think just how far Levy's reach goes.

I went to see Young Washington with my wife and among the only other group in there was the strongest kid in the chess club.

Last night I achieved a new high of 2029 and defeated my highest rated opponent, 2046.

Going to an OTB tournament in a week, feels good to be at my peak right before.

Only thing that worries me though is that I've only been playing 2D 10+0, I think I should have been doing more work with a board this past week

I had it run a quadruple-elimination tournament based on four poker personality archetypes, these were the results. It said this was the best game in its opinion desu I have no idea what's going on.

Will Anish beat Hans? I think Hans will win, he has more to prove and no gf to distract him from most important thing in life chess

Anish is definitely the better player but I think Hans has some chances since it's blitz

why do people keep saying lichess looks old???
legitimately find a single website from 2005 that's as responsive and non-bloated as lichess. if anything, chess.com is closer to a 2005 website with its awful ui and ads everywhere.

I don't get either lichess UI is near perfect as .scam is a bloated monstrosity of menus within menus where everything takes twice as many clicks as it should, yet you often see people claim .scam has better UI

I am slighlty concerned about my 3D vision considering I played this yesterday in a 30+0 game using a real board.

At least I did it yesterday and not during the tournament. I'm also the highest rated player, so hopefully I get an easy warm up game in round 1

is queen c7 your prep?
>>
>>573857349
Yeah, I watched all the videos from the Chessbrah Taimanov speedrun and play basically what he taught in that.

That game was in prep until basically move 10. Normally I play Nf6, but the way he ayed, I saw that I would need Ne7 saves a tempo to play d5 later on since I would need d6 to prepare Nf6 because of e5(maybe I could have allowed it? but I didn't want to)
