Don't comment on ongoing games of other people.

Let's have a look at this:

And see how Black loses a pawn for nothing, by following them "tips" yeah, develop, yeah connect the Rooks, etc.

Go after tips and such, and you'll lose many games in the frst moves for not knowing a secondary opening.

An other example: my opponent is a Queen's pawn player, and plays that (1.d4) every time with White for 10-15 years. Let's see how it goes for him as he's playing Black against me:

It took him over an hour to play like 8 moves out of 40 he needed to play in 2 hours, and ended up in a King's Pawn opening reversed with a move less than should, taking ages to play moves that fit the famous "tips" of my bottom.

He eventually lost for playing mediocre moves in a position that was so totally unfamiliar to him.

I could multiply the examples, and trust me, I've got tons of them, taken from real chess competition. But I won't work any further for getting "thumbs down" from people who care for what's impressive and easy rather than for the truth.

And so, try play "by tips" against a specialist of the Alekhine or Scandinavian Defense, and you'll be home early. With bruises.

And, of course, it goes without saying that You can't have Hyper Modern openings and Classical openings in the same bag, when Hyper Modern openings were created in order to punish the Tarraschian approach of chess "Occupy the center, pull out minor pieces, castle early, connect the Rooks".

One must know the so painfull feeling of losing "unfairly" after playing all them moves that do fit the standarts of them "tips" of hell.

Tips, at best, serve the only purpose to win games early within your learning of chess.

Dismissed is the antique idea and truth, that you should prepare for losing ALL of your games the first year you do study and practice chess.

Internet introduced the harmfull possibility to play hundreds, thousands of games in a row, against very, very weak players, making it possible for one, to get some satisfaction of winning, waaaaay too early in their path of masterizing the fundamentals of chess.

Of course, one then wonder how come, after being lucky for some games, they get unlucky in other games, and try to find the magical spell that'll allow them to get lucky more often, as they take for actual chess games the chaotic brawl between two angry babies.

I can't fight that, and probably no one can. The World has mutated, and many things are changed for ever. But chess tips are still BS for the guilible.

Play slow games, practice analysing the position, not making the move that looks right/feels right/you hope is right. Avoid blitz as if you will catch something nasty from it.

Because you will.......the habit of moving intuitively without considering the consequences properly.

Never play the wayward queen attack (also known as "Scholars Mate". People can easily punish your early queen moves, and soon they will have multiple pieces developed and you only have your queen out.

Tips for beginners.

(1) King safety. Castle early.

(2) attacks. Try using the fried living attack or the Halloween gambit.

And now you reopened it for absolutely no reason.
