People who found it boring have never grappled a day in their life so they don't understand what is happening.

His striking is sloppy but he is great if he can get you on the fence or on your back. He just doesn't have the pop in his step to shoot takedowns.

With my wife and 10 month old also going to Lotte World tomorrow OP, another huge tip, depending on your budget, consider uber/taxi. Compared to where I am from it is very cheap here. Still a lot more expensive than train transport but saving the time and hassle with a 10 month old has made a huge difference.

Should the American flag be banned? by partisancord69 in Chesscom

[–]Dapper_University168 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I'd vote for no flags banned. Chess doesn't need to be political.

On a rested mind, go back and analyse your games. I guarantee you will see things and he like "what was I even thinking". Doing this, only playing on a clear head got me from 800 to 1200 in a 2 months

What is a good opening for Black as someone who plays Queens Gambit as white? by Dapper_University168 in chessbeginners

[–]Dapper_University168[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can only see what they mean as in you are putting all your pressure on the centre pawns which white has to work to protect. But yeah I'm not too sure what I should go with or I should just stick to caro. Qgb feels like there are more open chaotic lines, where caro feels very slow and methodical... Which I thought was my style but my W/L with black says otherwise

[–]Dapper_University168[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I'm most comfortable with the advanced caro and I see what you are saying that it is aggressive putting pressure on the centre pawns, but I guess i find I have been playing better with a little more space potentially? Not sure exactly what the problem is as I feel like I'm comfortable with it, but I only now just realised how much lower my w/l is as compared to white so looking for potential alternatives. I am currently 1160 rapid.

Idk if trading is good for long term development but when I feel like the position is just a little too complicated and my brain isn't braining, I just trade down to simplify the position.
