Ask a 2300

Saw other people doing this so I figured I would contribute as well. Please don't ask me to be your coach. 

Your a 2300, can you coach me

how i can play my oppening percfetly and how I can new oppening ( for a 800 elo)

how do you find middle game plans? and how do you calculate, and how do you find the best move.

One piece of advice / Chess concept that really helped you improve the most ?

Lol

Yo, can you coach me

what is the most common opening you see and the mistakes associated with it?

There's no such thing as playing the opening perfectly, it's a matter of taste and what you like. Play simple openings that have simple ideas like the Caro Kann and the Trompowksy.

I'm not sure what the most common opening I see is, but the one I see most commonly mishandled is definitely the Catalan. People just don't know the theory and lose a pawn for nothing.

@zISUk In short, no. The best way to gain elo at your level is by getting better at tactics. If you don't have any openings, keep it simple with your choices. There's no point playing hyper theoretical openings which your opponents won't even go into. Annihilating your opponents with theory only works if you're strong enough to punish any mistakes they make.

@ShortWaffle163 Plans are based off a few elements of the position. One you've probably heard about is attacking in positions where the kings are castled on opposite sides. In those positions you're not trying to do anything but checkmate your opponent or force them to give up material to avoid instant defeat. In less wild positions it's often about the pawn structure and creating/exploiting weaknesses.

Being able to calculate deeply is a matter of practice makes perfect (or better at least). To practice, you need to do puzzles that you find challenging, and not guess or rush it. Properly think about puzzles and do your best to calculate all the way to the end, and improvement will come.

You can find a plan by asking yourself a few questions about the position. These questions are what are the weak squares (weak pieces or pawns are weak squares occupied by pieces, and a square is weak if you can attack it more than your opponent can defend it), where do you want to place your pieces and how can you put them there, what does your opponent want to do (the best move is often stopping your opponent from doing what they want), and how you can attack the king.

How to learn opening theory. I'm 2000 Blitz and I wanna start learning opening theory. The hardest part is memorizing the lines.

@supremexcris The most important thing is to not get frustrated when you don't immediately see the fruits of your efforts. Know when and when not to play, and if you have the opportunity to face stronger opponents, take it. Getting into OTB classical chess is really helpful to improve as you will experience a whole new level of chess thinking that will carry through into helping your intuition and therefore your strength in faster time controls.

@Steinway_Model_D I've had this problem in the past. For me at least, I like to see the theory, so I can pick up things very quickly if a friend shows me a line, or I see a game with the theory. For example when I wanted to learn theory in the Najdorf English attack, I looked at the famous game Karjakin-Anand 2006. Chessable courses are great too. Once you've started learning the theory of something, you've done the hardest part, and the rest of the theory in that variation will come more easily

Would you like to run a couple rapids? 2100 here and yeah

What's the biggest difference in the game between 2300 and 2100? What would you suggest for me to improve on to get to your level?

Can you please tell about your thought rpocess during the game? What kind of plans do you make in middlegame, and what do you consider before making a move?

why me getting downvoted,

How long will it take to go from 1900 to 2000?

And what's the fastest way to reach 2000 from 1900?
