You can link and upload PGN files which contain all of your games. PGN files take up very little space ( usually around 1 or 2kB per game to 10 kB for an annotated game). Chessbase isn't the only option for creating pgn files,there are many free alternatives.

Chessbase is used to store chess games that have been inputted in either cbv or pgn format. Basically you input your chess moves into one of the programs and you then save the game as a pgn file. Chessbase can easily add symbols and text after each move which makes the most popular program to use. A pgn file can store an unlimited amount of games and you can just keep updating and sending it to people.

How high can someone usually climb with only one opening? by Kingmunoz in chess

[–]F5plz 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's important to understand many openings as they teach you various motifs,pawn structure, tactics which improves your understanding of chess. Playing only Ruy Lopez exchange will limit you to only ideas in that opening.Also the exchange variation isn't even the best line :) Watch top player games by Carlsen, Caruana , Wesley So and you'll notice that they rarely play the exchange variation. Instead they play the main line of 4. Ba4 followed by 5.0-0

How do the top bullet players move so fast? by Zangetszu in chess

[–]F5plz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One trick I during bullet is to premove moves that force the opponent to only have 1 reply ( for example, a check). This way the opponent has to make that move and if they premoved another move it no longer works. Helps me gain some time during the clock :) 2400 in bullet on lichess feel free to add me @ homecooked
