My son online here wants to aquire a stronger chess program to play agaist. He is like you. Maybe I am too old fashioned, but I believe people need to just (as Capablanca once said) play the board. Whether we remember positions or not we need to be sharp and look at the possbilities. That is what computer programs are best at - they see all the combinations. They don't care what opening they are in..by BillyIdle 3 months ago

A lot of these traps in the book 200 Modern Chess traps are derived from very famous games. When we walk in the park we don't want to step in shit. Whether a computer program knows a trap or not is not relevant. Best lines always avoid the traps. That is why they are the best lines. One cannot take his book or computer to a tournament. Some of us are better at memorization than others. Following what we think is "the book" can lead to trouble for some of us. We want the opponents to make by BillyIdle 3 months ago
