Chess Advices

I would like to share some Chess Advices here , welcome with any one who would like to share his ideas and chess advices .

1-At opening start advancing knights before bishops 
while bishops can control on several squares of their original, if not there pawns hinder their way.
So start moving the knights first to control several squares of the competitor. 

Also, one must be at peace with himself and one with himself and the universe.  Meditation and martial arts should greatly improve one's Chess ability. 

I smell Josh Waitzkin.

Beer does it for me but hey, each to his own.

so where and how should i go when death on the line ?

yes , also some sports like swimming or walking may do same effect .

martial arts are very important for dealing  life

2- king castling is the next step in opening , should be put it in mind , there are two types kingside castling  & kueenside castling .

I always forget about the kueenside!

Lucky for me, that you are here, to give such good advices.

p.s. Do you coach?

Doggy=lolo,   What kind of dogs do you have??

1. Do not drink anything alcoholly before a tounamment game!!! It makes you see master level moves only to see your Queen taken after you make the move that looked so good!!

2.Do not wear tight clothes coat/tie, tight pants etc, its get uncomfortable in a long game loose is best!

3. Sit with the sun to your back and in your opponents face!

4.Reread numbers 1., 2., and 3!!

1. Keep your eye on the goal:  CHECKMATE
2. Think of what the opponent would do to combat your move
3. Don't sufficate your king
4. Trade off queens only if you're ahead pointwise (view details)
5. Don't run your king out of bounds (your side of the board)
6. Connect rooks and knights
7. Analyze if you have time
8. Trade off knights for bishops only if the board is fairly clear (and vise versa)
9. If the board is fairly empty, think about advancing a pawn.
10. Play the game not the rating

It is unfair to remove any of your opponent's pieces from the board when your opponent leaves the table.

Hey GhostNight,

p.s. Taking another look, it's way too big. Nice fish, is it yours?

This is from the great player Tarrasch:

When you see a good move, sit on your hands and see if you can find a better one.
