Chess improvement
4. Bb5 instead of NxN which wins a piece
10. Nxe5 dropping a piece
until u improve ur 1 move vision, pointess to talk about anything else.
Indeed. Not bad, but if you had at least a cursory glance at an opening manual you would've played the better move: 3 d4 instead of the move you actually played.
Mainline thus~
1 e4 Nf6 2 e5 Ne4? 3 d4 f6 (3 ... e6 4 Nh3 h6 5 Qg4 d5 6 f3 h5 7 Qf4 g5 8 Nxg5 Nxg5 9 Qxg5 Be7 10 Qg7+-) 4 Qh5+ g6 5 Qh4 d5 6 Bd3+-
A word of advice would be to play online games. 3 day max. Soo you can get a chance to learn and actually research the opening you're playing. A disclaimer though~ it's only a guide, in the opening , what to look for as the relatively best way for you to continue. Knowing some basic tactics, typical combos, common positional themes, rudimentary endgame play (includes fundamental mating patterns) are ultimately what will win games for you in the long run.
For me, playin's the thing. Gain some experience. Get some books. Bone up on some YouTube videos. Cool
u learn more from ur losses. so post games that u've lost. some of us make mistakes only when challenged, so sometimes the won games may not have much to teach.
also i see u've started another thread about improving. y not stick to this 1?
It makes me cringe, the guy plays f6, and you put your knight on e5. Until you LEARN to stop hanging your pieces, you will be able to move on. It isn't even enough to solve tactic problems.
You must be AWARE and SELF-CONSCIOUS. Playing everyday for the last few months... yet you still hang pieces. My friend, quality over quantity. If you do a thousand tactic problems yet don't think or improve upon past mistakes, you will not get anywhere.
Practice visualizations and follow games of masters; often, we can train our chess vision and subconscious by viewing and listening. I'm not sure, but I feel like I can credit my relatively fast developent (800 USCF to 1800 USCF in a year) to following youtube videos. It's not necessarily the knowledge, but pattern recognition and learning how to think.
My bad, going over your game again quickly, trading your dark squared bishop for their knight so early didn't seem good. Nor did retreating your knight back to d7.

Go on chesstempo.com and solve tactics ever day (atleast 30 minutes- I did about 1 hour each day)! I went from 1406 to 1700 in only 3 months that way.
My name Is Swapnil Kumar. I am an advanced beginner.
I do not have a fide rating but am rated 1130 on chess.com.
I have been playing everyday from the last few months but I am stuck below 1200.
how can I improve?
