a. Classical control of the center (squares d4, d5, e4. e5). Occupy the center with your pawns and pieces in order to control the center.
b. Hypermodern control of the center. Estblish control of the central squares with the power of your pawns and pieces. With this method you do not provide your opponent with targets in the center as occurs in the Classical theory.
3. Winning chess is the strategically/tactically correct advance of your 8 pawns.
You forgot method number 4 control of the centre (the torrubirubi's method): play randomly in the centre until your opponent surprise you and you lose a pawn, a piece or the game.

Hey my friend, this was only a little joke. But yeah, rated 800 and giving other people advice how to play chess is really hilarious. Learn to play chess before you begin to teach other people.Tell me, how long are already playing chess? Since one week? Perhaps two? Try to control yourself the center in your games and you will get probably 1400.

No problem for the beginner who is out-of-book at the start of the game?
Thanks for confirming what I have slowly come to believe, kinder, you are a troll.

Right now I am just focusing on tactics and it's working fine for me. What rating level do you think is appropriate to start looking at openings(if I ever get there, that is)
Your rating is high enough, and you probably have been working on openings as a side effect of all your games and analyzes.
To dig deeper into openings, the time comes when you get curious enough.

From a 1600 to a 800: first accept that you are weak, otherwise you'll never improve.

Ridiculous your strange mix between lack of humor, unnecessary aggressivity and arrogance. You like to hide in the web to insult people that you would not dare to insult in real life.

It is very typical, and not only in this thread

Usually it requires at least two very stupid people posting to get such a high quality output, but fortunately enough the site has plenty of them.
