Did I ask?
I could hypothetically beat Vishwanathan Anand if I really wanted to
Sort:
No
You could beat Anand if you studied a very specific opening in great detail and he happened to go down that exact path.
Or if he disconnects and loses on time.
Anand has the best tactical depth of any active player. He routinely springs combinations 6 and 7 moves deep. You'd have to be GM-class in terms of your own tactics to stand any chance against him. The "Anand only looks three moves deep" statement is kind of like when Richard Reti said he only looks at "one move, but the right one". You're supposed to know better.
i believe you can accomplish anything, go bro!

Dude...only 6 moves? I can think ten moves ahead.

I have a pretty good opening theory knowledge....I'm quite good at the e4 and d4 openings

Ain't chess skill about the ability to see moves ahead? The guy who can see more moves ahead is the winner.
NO!

Yeah well Richard reti was probably a positional player. That's why he looked only one move ahead..I'm a strategical player I can see like ten moves ahead.

Even if you can think 15 moves ahead, it's possible that you miss a tactic, a checkmate or something else. Because you think deeply doesn't mean that you think correctly.

Doesn't Vishwanathan Anand only see three moves ahead? I read somewhere that he does. Well, I can see more than like ten moves ahead sometimes more. That's what I mean when I say Elo rating isn't everything. You can't just measure ability and talent with a rating.
So anyway if I played Anand all I would need to do was go through every since variation on the board and if I had enough time on the chess clock and since I could see more moves ahead than him I would hypothetically win that game
The bunny believes you although you just joined and have no credentials. However there are too many skeptics here, so please just first get your GM title registered here first and then proceed to beat him. Unless your claim is that you can only beat Anand and not other masters. Thank you. Please don't let the bunny down.

Then why have you lost six of your last eight games?
Did you get paired against opponents who can look eleven moves ahead?

You've been losing too many games for this to be true.
You've broken the trusting bunny's heart. Hope you're happy.

Yeah that's what I meant by using a long chess clock time. That way I wouldn't be likely to blunder in time pressure
