How do I try to play this game? I like what Magnus Carlsen has to say about it, cuz it's pretty much in line with my whole life's mentality. (I probably do lose more then I should, but everyone tries, right?) "Some people think that if their opponent plays a beautiful game, its OK to lose. I don't. You HAVE to be merciless." - Magnus Carlsen.

Ok, I'm not merciless in real life, but I do try to be ruthless and efficient. 😅 😄

My favorite quote ever, that I try to apply to my chess games, (and basketball!) from the 2016 Commandos vs. Special Forces film Re:Born: "The Ghost stays silent and shows no sign of his approach. Try to hold your fire. The sound will tell him where you are. Fire only when you have a clear shot at the target."
