I don't believe it after I started playing chess 3 months ago I was fascinated by the game and played on and off for those 3 months and was stuck for 10 days or so in the 1500 range but today I was able to finally break 1600 and beating 1850 players even, so I think I can get higher in the upcoming month if I played frequently, hope someone can look at my recent games and tell me what I need to improve upon, that would be highly appreciated and is 1600 rapid even good?


Btw , I have not learned any openings yet, is this the best time to start learning? Or should I wait a bit longer? and how do I learn opening exactly? Thanks in advance

ps:btw no i am 1705 , hope i reach 2000 soon

Your rating graph shows you started at 1500, and were there for 3 months.

it's not accurate for example my highest rating was 1879 which is not shown in the graph besides i didn't play everyday also that's what caught your attention?

I think what Llama's saying is that it doesn't seem plausible that you were able to play at 1500 rating from your first Chess match. This from June 19th, 4 months ago, with 92% accuracy, doesn't look like it was played by someone who had never played before.

yeah but I really never played before, I only knew some rules and played like 5 matches when I was a kid to learn some rules, other than that I only started 3 months ago.

plus the last 6 matches i was able to beat 1750 and 1800 players with relative ease so i think i can go up to maybe 1900 in a month or 2 if i played regularly.

So that match on the 19th of June, 4 months ago, in which you got 92% accuracy against a 1750 rated player, was your first ever Chess match?

yes other than like i said 5 or so matches when i was 3 or 4 to learn how some pieces move

If true then I have no doubt whatsoever that you're the most naturally talented player to ever grace this planet. It took Magnus Carlsen a year of training by a Grandmaster just to reach the ability which you were born with!

well what I can say? if I say yes then I will sound condescending, and if Ii say no we will go in circles, but every time I tell someone they tell me that I am a liar and that it's impossible but I am really new here, I will say one thing that will get people mad for no reason and I know that it's not the only factor and I swear I am not trying to sound smart, it's just every time I say my rating people rage on me so I have to say it . I have an IQ of around 150 so maybe it's factor and yeah I know that the top players have like 180 and I am not special I am just tired of people calling me a liar instead of helping me improve more.

yeah but like i said i am not special i am far far far from it in fact i struggle with saying myself as worthless and plus the emotional abuse i get from those who are closest to me so i play chess to try to convince myself that i am not stupid like they say and i know that chess is not all about being smart it's a lot more than that but every time i tell someone my rating they say bull*** and i get hated on for no reason i am really trying to see someone who is 2000 or more to say my weaknesses and what opening to start learning that's it.

I'm sorry, I'm not the right person to help you. You you were born a stronger Chess player than I will probably ever be. You need to be in a training program tailored for a future World Champion. When you get there I'll feel proud to have met you when you were just starting out.

well thanks i don't think though that i will get to be a gm in time in the near future or even ever , i know that it will take years and years and years besides there's virtually no available training coaches in my country so i will have to rely on myself and on strong players helping me

Well you picked intermediate when you created your account thats why your rating started at 1500. Either you had prior experience or you will crush magnus carlson in no time if you train hard.

I don't remember what I choose when I created the account and yeah I had no prior experience but of course I won't crush magnus besides there's no coach training available in my country and I can't even review my games because I don't have a membership and I don't even know where to begin learning

I mean you are so talented at chess but have bad memory apparently. What you should do is to get a fide rating and it should break the local news if you are really 1600 3 months after 0 experience. After that it should be easy to get a world class coach to train you. But a genius probably already figure that out instead of posting this on Chess.com

How is that even possible to start as 1500? I don't beleive it. You had to play some other games to get better, or you did something bad which i don't want to say...

well you are more than welcome to report me then if you think i cheated but of course i never ever cheated in chess, not even to try it, so i am not afraid of being reported , and no i started as 1500 . i wish someone would just help me improve and not accuse me . i mean even one person
