I was wondering if any of you high rated guys would be interested in playing a 30min game with me and give me some advice based on the way I play.

Okay, so I played 2 games against Dimi, and the first thing that comes to me is, tactics.

I used to underestimate tactics myself as a beginner and I regret that a lot.

Tactics will alone probably get you to the 1300-1400 land if not more.

Practice them a lot, just to give you a point of comparison, these are my chesstempo stats.

 

Blitz: 1843, highest 1883.

Standard: 1930ish, highest 1950 or so.

 

However there are also other things to work on which I will mention later on, here are my comments on our games.

 

 
 
So.
 
1. Your opening choices are good, the lines you played are both theory-free and will get you a playable position.
2. Study tactics. A lot of them. 
3. Implement what you learned, you may be a beast at tactics but if your thought process is flaed it will not help you. Always ask, what is my opponent's threat, what forcing moves he has, and the same for you, what are your threats, what forcing moves are at your disposal.
Eventually with pracitce and good habits you will get the 3rd one rather easily.

I forgot to say.

Good luck on your chess, if you want we can play some more games after you study and consider you have improved, to see how you have done.

The basics of each phase of the game

Opening:

Follow the Opening principles:

1.      Control the center squares – d4-e4-d5-e5

2.      Develop your minor pieces toward the center – piece activity is the key

Ø  Complete your development before moving a piece twice or starting an attack.

Ø  Move pieces not pawns.

3.      Castle

4.      Connect your rooks

Ø    By move 12, you should have connected your Rooks, or be about to do so.

 

Middle game:

When you have completed the Opening Principles, you are now at the middle game.  Now you need to formulate a middle game plan.  The middle game is a very complicated part of a chess game.  A simple way to develop a middle game plan is to perform the following steps.

1.      Scan your opponents 5th, and 6th ranks (3rd, and 4th if your black)

2.      Look for weak pawns, and or weak squares.

Ø  Weak pawns and squares are Pawns, and squares that cannot be defended by another Pawn.

Ø  Knights are excellent pieces on weak squares.

Ø  When deciding on weak squares, and weak Pawns to attack, the closer to the center the better

 

End game:

Start with the basics:

1.      Learn basic mates – KQ vs. K, KR vs. K, KRR vs. K

2.      Learn Opposition, and Key Squares

 

3.      Learn basic King and Pawn endings
