Who cares if white plays bg5? This isn't at all threatening to black.

I'm saying 2..h6 is ridiculous

Avatar of lolurspammed

You can play 1.h4 2.a4 in bullet and get away with it. I'm sure h6 is fine in such short time controls, but not when the opponent has time to strategize.

2...h6 is a solid move like fecal matter is solid compared to urine being liquid.  You know what they say though, it's better to be pissed off, than pissed on.

Still jealous at the fact you do not have my creativity on the chess board!

HA HA

It looks to me as if you have already taken BelovedStalin under your wing Pfren.

BelovedStalin is playing your type of moves.

The solid move 2...h6!!

They always say the chess pupil doesn't fall far from the chess masters tree.

People on this chess forum would love to hear about the Pfren Variation in the Bishop's Opening.

What does the powerful move 2...h6 do in the Pfren Variation?

Well his student already gave most of its functions.

It controls the very important g5 square which prevents any Bishop or Knight from landing on g5.

and

It gives luft to the king for the endgame.

Stop with the baseless cheating accusations.

H6 isn't a weakness, the reason it's a bad move is because black is already behind a move and wasting another one isn't doing him any favors.

So I'm just going to tell you, that kind of logic will not help you get to GM.

Just in case you were wondering.

Avatar of RubiksRevenge

Quite good to know about the 2..Nf6 and if 3.d3 then 3..c6. Some Bishop opening players choose it to avoid the Petroff defence and hope to trick black players into 2 knights defence or an Italian game.

RouteToGM proof that he's cheating??

I just know the OP is grateful for BelovedStalin/RouteToGM bickering!

Avatar of lolurspammed

Did you run his games through an engine? Or are you just a fool?

Avatar of lolurspammed

So if hes bad at bullet he must be a cheater.

Im decent at normal blitz but horrible at bullet, because I need time to think. Does that make me a cheater? No. I hate it when people accuse someone of using a chess engine and then they're like, "fite me in bullet scrub". Just calm the frick down, run it through an engine, and there you go. How hard is that?

@RouteToGM

 

playing bullet is more of a finger workout than anything else. 2 minute games is what most people play, because most engines can't catch up with that without blundering like heck or losing on time. challenge him to 2 minute games :3

The OP hasn't been on in the past 6 months lol.

The OP isn't even here to see the bickering which is pretty Priceless!

If you ask me.
