Hypothetically: How would you improve your chess given the chance?

That´s it!

I had that once, for a whole year, in the early 80s. We were the only two Englishmen stuck in a minute village in southern Germany. No computers in those days, so we played each other, and he was amazingly patient. I was maybe average and he was definitely good (he´d once been the only player out of 30 to manage a draw against Korchnoi in a simultaneous match; he still plays at around 2200 I think). We must have played around 500 games, and I learnt a hell of a lot from him. I beat him once and once only, in a very cold train at 4 am, when he had a bad case of the flu.

I think if you beat someone who had a draw against Korchnoi, then you should be recognized as having had a draw against Korchnoi. If I beat someone who beat Carlsen, then it should be in the record books that I beat Carlsen. 

If you say so trysts, I´m not going to argue ... maybe I´ll get a t-shirt printed ...

Cows don't play chess. But let's say they did. If Carlsen had a glass of milk from that cow, then it should be in the record books that you beat Carlsen.

If that is the same cow you beat, then it should be in the record books that there is film footage of you beating Korchnoi.

That looks like a picture of Carlsen finding out that his rating dropped because someone just beat an orange.

I'd work on my sex appeal to distract opponents.

I hope none of this is considered off-topic? I always have problems with that concept.

lol....always with the best one liners.

Endgames, all the way.
