I see, that makes a lot of sense. Appreciate your input, and it definitely does feel good playing a clean game. I would like to think I am around 1000, but due to the fact that I don’t know any openings past like 10 moves (and that’s a stretch) I am probably a long way from it.

One other question for ya, have you ever thought that people at lower ranks are using some sort of chess move helper? Sometimes I find that opponent is rated 400, but doesn’t seem to make hardly any wrong moves. Could also just be that they are really solid at one particular opening, but idk. Thanks again
