Free Training Games

This was suggested here

I thought it's a good idea so I'm offering to play 2 training games at a time for those under 2000 daily, one per player. We will talk through the moves as we play.

Maybe this can be a thread for others to offer to do the same.

EDIT:

I'm not taking on any more games for now.

Hi fissionfowl, good idea and would like to take you up on your offer. How would that work?

If it's ok with you we will play an unrated daily game where we explain our thought processes as we play and I give advice. Do you want takebacks enabled?

I would be interested in this.  Since it is a daily game, I'm guessing we will be discussing our thought processes through messages?

Happy to try that. I hadn't thought about takebacks so can try without.

~ KILLER KNIGHT ~

 

Keep an eye on White's kingside Knight.  After White's Bishop establishes a strong position at the head of the pawn chain, the Knight jumps the chain and wreaks havoc against Black ... ultimately forking the King and Queen for a win by resignation ... demonstrating the value of a mobile Knight in an otherwise closed position ... enjoy ...

Let's do it. Daily has a chat feature beside the board. Do you want to do takebacks? I ask because the game becomes less instructive to talk about if someone hangs a piece.

happy.png Yes I didn't link it correctly. Your post is what I was referring to when I said 'I thought it's a good idea'.

Sounds good - Since you recommend allowing takebacks I'm good with that!

I'd love to play a game when you get time.
