Wow! Prodigious memory! How many different opening lines have you memorised?
A very sharp line in Caro Kan, that I prepared with Stockfish up to move 12!

Just Caro- Kan opening cos I always play c6 against e4. It is not that hard to get into move 12, cos if you keep playing the same line again and again(and review with Stockfish lines) , you remember lines deeper and deeper.
Still....that’s pretty awesome. All my games have ‘book moves’ (opening book moves) for maybe 3 moves and then we leave theory already! 😂 😉
So that is quite impressige

The advantage of being a class player. No need to worry about that kinda stuff.
bruh u do not need to worry about that even when u r not a class player. u need to be a GM to worry about that stuff.
if u are good enough u can jsut play 4.Bd3 or some weak garbage as white and it does not matter how much ur opponent memorizes because u will outplay him from a equal position

a 2500 GM will still beat a 2300 most of the time just playing 1.a3 or 1...a6 or some garbage to get out of book. it does not even matter until u are at the very least strong IM
engines are garbage, and they have ruined chess.
drmrboss Interesting!
Theory in this line extends beyond move 25 in several lines, which were available even in old manuals (e.g. Karpov's book on the Panov). You don't even are at the starting point at move 12, and of course Stockfish is of no use there.
I played this game 24 years ago at the last round of an Open, where a draw was good enough for an IM norm. I have spotted the rather unusual move 16.Bd2 in existing GM games, and analysed it before the game (no engine aid, of course, they were very weak back then). The GM's reaction was not very good, and a few moves later I offered a draw in a better position.
In your game, 15.Ba3+ is a blunder. After 15.Qc5+ Ke8 16.Qxa7 Bd6 17.0-0! (more than 20 master games available) Black needs to be very careful.

I don't like 15. Ba3+ at all. I'd probably play 15. Qc5+. White played ok up to there.
It is 1 min bullet.
It is understandable that my opponent does some mistakes in this sharp line in bullet.

Looks dangerous after 14...Rb8
a7 pawn is hanging
Did you consider 13...Qd7?
No need to consider "a" pawn is hanging.
I am confident my opponent will not be attacking and grabbing " a" pawn , by paying off one -two tempo moves in this position.
It is a high risk activity due to,
1. open centre
2. Lack of development in both sides
It is generally a kind of suicide in grabbing pawns in such opening position.

Whatever floats your bullet boat
A good move is a good move , no matter what time control ( except in less than 10 secs or premoves)?
A bad move is a bad move.
I dont think Qd7 is a good move , no point?
How you will back up Qd7 is a good move?
By your rating? I dont know your rating but logic seemed < 1500.
By Stockfish?
This is very well-known line, so this is a pointless thread

@PawnstormPossy - I am sorry you cannot think quick enough to play bullet, kiddo.
On Topic. As black, I play 1...c6 2...d6.
What is the difference? Is one rated superior? Thanks.

I can't think fast enough playing rapid! LoL
I try weird stuff in rapid though, don't take online rapid seriously and get interrupted all the time.
You lost me at 2...d6
That is the question. 2...d6 is listed as Caro-Kann.
I've played this variation as Black many times. It looks a bit hair-rising in the early stages, but in practice the resulting endgame is quite a lot easier to play for Black than White once you get below titled player strength.

Why do you even play 1 min bullet? When I was at my best I could work out an entire game in 5 mins if I was on form but in bullet you have to play the first half decent move you see. What's the point? The one with the PTFE on the mouse wins?
The guys who play bullet can't see more than one or two moves ahead. They have no calculation ability or planning. So, by playing bullet, they can slap the pieces around a little bit and pretend they're playing chess. Obviously, a bullet rating means absolutely nothing to anyone.
If you think I am playing trash at 1 min, I can give you time odd like
1 min vs 5 mins odd? about 4 games.
We can play in the website I played where time odd is easy to set up.
In my opinion, I am confident to give that time odd to anyone <1600.
It is not a bet, it is just to let you know your chess level against good players.

Once again: RAWR I'll beat j00 at bullet! - This has *nothing* to do with me or you. Bullet chess isn't chess and nobody cares about it. That's totally independent of me. You could checkmate me in 3 moves and all of this remains fact.
Obviously, if we want to know someone's "chess level", the last thing we would do is play bullet LOL.
Read twice, you will be playing 5 min blitz (which is official fide blitz time control) vs me at 1 min bullet.
It is 5x handicap!

Dude, are you retarded? Maybe you need to read again: My play against you in *any* time control has no bearing on the discussion here. What is established opinion about bullet chess has nothing to do with me or you.
Bullet = not chess, nobody cares about it, everyone laughs about it. Analyzing bullet lines is beyond ignorant.
Time depends on experience and practice. People with high experience and high training need less time. People who can solve 3x3x3 rubic tubes in a few seconds doesnt need a few hours.
According to my assumption,
2700 plus GM at 3 mins can play same level of game skill at 2000 in 3 hours ( that is why those guys play 30-40 simultaneous games)
2000 + at 3 mins= 1300 at 3 hour time control.
That is why I estimate 2000+ bullet can play same or slighter better than 1500 at 5 min.
Up to move 12, I remembered Stockfish lines, so I was confident that I was playing 3500 level in opening, and then I am happy that I can continue sharply in the middle game!
