I love playing chess with a few close friends. The problem is that we know each other's moves so well that it feels like our games are becoming predictable. I study a new openning once a month to try to shake things up a bit. Any other tips on how to practice with the same players and help each other improve?

if you get to the point where you learn other's playing style, there is not much room to improve. i would suggest to keep trying new things
