Are we allowed to make moves ahead of time that predict what the opponent will do??  If so, how is this done on Chess.com ??

On live chess it is allowed, not so in Correspondence

this happened to me in a correspondence game. I was like "wtf? that was quick". It was actually a little disconcerting if I'm honest. I've no clue how it's done.

You can do it in correspondence and live. In live just make sure the pre move option is enabled. In correspondence it's called conditional moves and can only be done over a comp.

Oh you were wrong but don't blame the "mobile app" for being wrong. YOU were wrong (just repeating your words) and you have to play better, then losing won't take overhand

Someone else already mentioned it, but in Daily (correspondence) there is a button for conditional moves.  You can set up as many lines as you want ( trying to guess what your opponent will do).  I use it all the time, especially if it is getting close to mating them. Then I may put in 5 or 6 different lines to speed up the game  : )

WHY SAY BOOK MOVES AND NOONE WILL KNOW? IT IS LEGAL TO DO SO.
