Want to know how openings works? And does learning openings in white works for black?

Direct message would have been better😂...Several openings (like Queens Gambit, d4/c4 or London Setup with d4/Bf4/c3 etc.) can be used similar with black (d5/e6 against d4 setups or d5/c6). But these openings have different names, different theory and often diferrent main ideas. For an starter it can be an good idea to combine some of these similar openings. Openings in general always have the idea to controll the game in same way and fight for space and the controll of the center while putting pawns there. Modern openings (g6) have the idea to give the opponent the center and THEN attack it, they basically see the central space as a weakness. These openings are usually too difficult for starters. Classical stuff( like e5 or c5 against e4 and d5 against d4) works better and is easier to understand.

I also knew that the "suspicious" aspect would be coming. First of all, you can believe what you want, and thats good. I dont want top force you top any decision. But why should i do sus things?(whatever this ist?) Chess is not great dir earning money, and that isnt my Goal anyways.

Hello. Am new here :)

Am I making progress? Can you analyze my 1 game 1 week or 1 month ago and 1 game right now. I already see that I have less mistakes and blunders than month ago, but hearing this from real teacher is like more satisfying or helpful

Sorry for my English, I'm on Intermediate level, so I hope u dont wanna kill yourself after reading this😅

Hi, your progress is quite impressive! 50 games ago you had no plan at all, made way too many pawns moves and let pieces hanging. Now i can see some structure and you see hanging pieces quite good, even though your openings are still not therothical, which is normal. I would try to maybe take a look at the Colle System, the Philidor Defence and the Queens Gambit Declined.

I wanted to ask you for help/coaching, but you wrote this on another post in the forum:

" When i started, i was really bad(obviously), but cause i dislike losing( and cause i immidiatly felt in love with that cool game) i sweared myself that i will get myself to master level (without teacher), and that in relativly short time. So i started my own training programm, which mainly involved playing games against the 2600 Elo Engine on the MagnusApp and Shredder. I tried to learn why the engine does the move it does and why theyre strong. I obviously losed every game, which motivated me to work even harder (and tilted me a bit😂). After 3 months of doing this almost every day, i lost hundreds of games against that annyoying bot, got 2 draws, and my strength exploded from beginner(1000) near master (2100) in classical time controll."

.....

 

Now, let's be real, it's just a bunch of nonsense right? please tell me you were trolling in that post.... because is very hard to believe you after reading that...

Avatar of NewestCM

Its no nonsense. Thats how i improved, and i know that many people find that hard to believe because they never heard that before. Its true though. I cant force you to belief me, and thats also not my goal. But thats how i improved.

Avatar of NewestCM

I'm sorry that you dont want my help, but thats your own decision. I wish you much luck at your chess-journey anyways👍
