That’s what I thought but it wouldn’t make sense in the sentence
Wouldn't make sense as in it's a bad move? lol
Yes I meant play 2.f4 after 1...c6
just celebrating the fact that after a harsh two weeks, i'm 260 points away to recover from tilt instead of 360
good job me

Well just that that’s not the KG but I understand now.
I would like to discuss cheese. Lol But seriously, we should all endeavor to become cheese black belts. Cheese is similar to bacon, without all the cloven hoof implications, in that cheese makes everything better. So we should all know the difference in good cheese, great cheese, and life changing cheese. (Note: there is no bad cheese)
I hope Fras doesn't mind me doing this bit in the chess thread. ☺️
yes but only in the far future. Besides humans will never be able to play like that anyway

I can’t say I agree. The number of possible positions is larger then atoms in the observable universe, and i think games can get very drawish, but just playing an offbeat opening could get the computer into a whole new calculation. Usually there is ~20 possible moves in a position, so if you know math you know that gets really darn big

Yeah it really is that big but if you think about it, the game is already partially solved. If you put max depth stockfish against itself it will always end in a draw...
Qe8 Qxa8 Qxa8 Rc8+ Qxc8 Bxc8 and I think white is still winning but I get the point

gotta start with Bg6 otherwise there’s qe8
Yeah but trading queens while up a piece is not bad either, but yeah I need to play Bg6 FIRST, then Qc8+. My idea is still winning I think tho

Lmao. I don't know if you're serious but some time ago I created a thread arguing that it has been already.

But I’m not sure if that’s what you’re supposed to do… I also used to play 2. Ke2 but I know that was definitely not the move.
After 1...c6 I would usually play KG or 2.Nf3. 2.Nc3 occasionally
If the game went 2.d4 d5 I think I would push e pawn.
Thanks but what do you mean by KG?
