@x3tr3yo37 Жыл бұрын

Yes, italian is very simple and most of the times it goes like a knife trough butter and it's very good for beginners however I personaly think it's harder to get crazy advantage over your opponent and most of the times the winner gets his advantage in the endgame.

@_IEatGlue Жыл бұрын

You could also move your queen h5, then depending on if your queen will still be safe you take his first pawn, putting him in check, if he puts his queen in fron (most likely wont) then you queen trade, if he moves his bishop infront (to prevent check obviously) you attack the pawn in which the bishop started behind and youll fuck up all their pieces on thag side with ease

I’m trying to remember how it goes but there’s a tricky line in the Bc4/Bc5 line where if the opponent plays wrong (and the natural looking “principled” moves after the knight takes on e4 and you castle are the wrong ones) they lose a piece with a queen vs 2 rooks swap where you have the queen.

This is called the fried liver attack, and a lot of people, quite obviously, do not encounter many games where the opponent plays these exact moves. That is not that ba of an issue, because you just play pawn d3 and then knight to g5 trying to fork regardless, if there isnt a pawn attacking there, or castle short and play a regular italian, or a flipped london.

I win about 80% of my games at my current low rank. But it almost always feels like I barely pull it off or I get very lost in the mid game and just wing a few moves and get lucky. Really not sure about the mid game at all. Openings I’ve for a handful and I can recognize the basics. Very basics. End games I feel like I can grasp what I need to be doing most times. But when your through with your opening and there is just a board full of so many different options and concerns I just feel like I can’t grasp what I need to do.

For beginners I'd recommend D4 instead of E4. If you really want to get better you have to learn sooooo many moves and lines if you reach a certain level, because the people who play e4 e5 will learn every single sideline to profit of every little mistake you make. The queens pawn openings mostly are way easier. If you play a london system for example, you are pretty safe with following your routine no matter what your opponent will do.

@Inquisitive06 3 ай бұрын

I wouldn't recommend the london system due to how BORING it was. Like whenever someone plays the london I always hit them with c5 to immediately get them out of their theory knowledge. Like bro, memorizing 15 move opening is not that hard. There are several apps or website that helps you remember better(like chessable or something) If you want to actually get good, then you should play one opening and be familiar with it(you don't have to remember all the lines, just be familiar with it) In my case, I'm very familiar with the italian game: Evans gambit(personal favorite lol) and The Giuoco pianissimo. The fried liver attack is my backup plan.

What stops the king from taking your bishop…?

@chess26622 29 күн бұрын

Maybe I reply you too late, but he meant that you move your knight to g5 first and if your opponent does nothing about that threat on pawn f7 you can grab their pawn with your knight, and fork their queen and rook. But more likely they will do something about that threat, and play something like d5. At this point your theory knowledge determines your position, you can either win, or lose.
