So I’m learning tons of theory mainly by play games and seeing where I went wrong then going to the computer to see the best moves. What do I do in this position I’ve been playing E5, get out my bishop (I’ll show you what I play in another board) but is there a better way...

Damn you are really putting in lot of effort to learn. I wish I could do the same.

If you play only "best" moves in the opening, you'll be countered every time by whoever is doing the same, then will be confused every time you bump into an unusual move.

True, but you have to learn those moves that are different, then you learn. Plus most positions are same going out of an opening if it’s played the same. Granted that’s what I’m going to be working on rn is tactics and middle game.

It's a lost cause, there are too many moves. You need to understand the ins and outs of what you're playing: what is it you want from the middle game, and what is it you want from the endgame.

To be honest I stopped caring much about the exact move orders. Just learn what are the key ideas and themes. What are the weak squares on your side. And those points on opponents side that you can exploit.

Opening actually doesn't matter much at our level of opponent doesn't blunder .

I Sort of disagree , Learning Theory like this can be useful in diverted openings like in the Game Mr Beast played IT was Anti - Vienna.

Well you could be right . But am still not persuaded. Like I just personally feel what's the point of learning too much and dive deep into theory when all I am going to do is make a clumsy mistake in the middle game and throw the game away. I feel I better be improving my tactics and endgame. But yeah that's just my opinion . You can have a different one.

Which proves not doing your homework is not a matter of ratings.

Well . Even if he hadn't done any homework , being that high rated he should have seen it intuitively .

The Damiano Defense:

Once you know it, you never miss an occasion for a deadly Qh5+, and never give your opponent the chance to give it to you.

And by the way why on earth does someone play the Damiano defense ? It's completely losing , unless you are playing someone rated 500 points below you.

You'll find over 200 games in Chessbase with it... Most of them won by White, of course.

On the side note, a strong amateur tricked Fischer in a simultaneous play by playing it (but played 3...-Qe7), posing as the full beginner...

Lol
