right...there are openings that a 1700 player knows that he does not. ok...

they say his opening are weak, but that is very much a relative statement. There is not an 1800 player who can teach him opening knowledge that he does not know.

No relevance.

Completely relevant. Try reading the original question again. Your naivety about how much better he is than you is astonishing.

Nope, it's still not relevant. The crowd is over there, with Magnus Carlsen. Over here there's just a bloke going on about light burdens and learning stuff.

I see. You are a clown.

Poor PlentyOToole is so full of his own nonsense that he thinks that he could teach openings to Carlsen.

Poor old jimmykay hasn't a clue about the openings Carlsen never learned.

I have more experience playing the Nimzowich Defence Defence than Carlsen

Avatar of PlentyOToole

Carlsen won't need any opening prep either, just two bare kings should suffice.

Poor old jimmykay, he had better find out otherwise when he plays Carlsen he is going to lose.

I am aware of that. It is PlentyOToole who is foolish enough to think that he can teach Carlsen some openings. Pure hubris.

And he would play it better than you, nevertheless.

Jimmykay could teach Magnus how to lose like a patzer.

I sure could. What is it EXACTLY that you think that know more about in chess than Carlsen? Instead of being a trollish loser, insisting on taking potshots at me that make you seem like a spoiled middle-school brat, why don't you answer the question?

Poor old jimmy is going full blown ad hominem. Try to keep up without losing your cool, dude. But that's not really an option for you is it ?

You have had nothing but ad hominem attacks against me for this entire thread, and now that I throw one at you, you think I am losing my cool?

Incorrect, son. You are a pretentious teenager who has not answered anything, but gets your kicks out of insulting and taunting people.

You are a troll, but sadly neither skilled nor funny at it.

You are a sad loser, who opened a troll account 2 days ago.

Untracking.

Don't forget who started bullshitting who jimmy boy.

It's well known Carlsen has no great interest in opening theory and has plenty to learn if he wants to.

Seems your only interest is to troll people on here.

Well, yes. Compared to the other top level players, Carlsen is not particularly interested in openings. However, compared to even "ordinary" GMs, Carlsen's preparation is stellar. Usually when people mention Carlsen's relative neglect of openings, it is in comparison to Viswanathan Anand or Vladimir Kramnik, but they literally may have some of the best opening preparation of all time! They, in so many ways, are the standard.
