How about, Winning for a change?
what interests me is that almost no-one connects the opening to a winning game (or atleast doesn't like it).
i myself like the endgame :)
In my opinion, the most enjoyable thing in chess is tying a game when is in disadvantage.
I like quick openining knockouts.
Sometimes all three occur--a postiional struggle, followed by tactically gaining a small advantage, followed by a not-so-easy endgame. :)
Since my opening is pretty strong (in my standards) but my endgame is about as reliable as a 2 legged-chair, I prefer endgame wins.
Nothing like a killer mating attack to give you a rush.
There is never a choice in this survey that reflects my reasons or preferences for playing chess. What I find most enjoyable is playing complex, double-edged positions with lots of possibilities, win or lose. Keeps the attention focused and engages the mind fully. Great way to pass the time, and that's what it's really all about.
TO A GOODSPORTSMAN ALL ARE BEARABLE
(COMMENT YOUR OPINION TO ME)
Winning a nice tactical game (39%)
Great poll!
lol winning for a change, definitely. As for the type of game, I dont particularly like all out tactical games but I love it when I get a nice position and then a cute tactic appears. So I guess positional, culminating in a pretty tactic would be my favourite. Hens' teeth though unfortunately!
How about coming from behind, engineering a victory when you could well have lost? That would have been my choice...
I definitely chose winning for a change. lol
Everything isn't about winning. Isn't it just great for even knowing how to play chess? What about the fact of just playing for fun. No mattern if you lose or win. >And no I'm not making one of those dumb speaches<
Early mates, like Legall's mate are most enjoyable.
Winning a game with a sneaky opening trap is always fun
Where is the option winning because of opponent's blunder :)?
My favorite way to win is like this with a opening trap
winning a nice tactical game!
I like winning really complex tactical games, because I really get a confidence boost and it reassures myself that I have some brains and a good ability to calculate. Also, as someone else said I really love forcing draws when I'm losing :D
My favorite is winning a game where neither me nor my opponent made any flagrant errors.
Winning with a tough endgame battle.
Always the last one for me, with out a doubt
winning a nice game!!!
i dont mind losing if i have played a good game and have been a challenge for my opponent mostly i cant stand losing after making a bunch of blunders of course thats just the way it goes mostly i try to improve my game and differant aspects of the game
