Maybe it's just your style (ie, your natural tendency). After all, Korchnoi and Steinitz come to mind as having the same attributes, and they did alright. Also, only if your opponent makes a mistake can anybody win the game.
I don't really think that caution is a bad habit (though foolhardiness might well prove to be)... :)
OK . you are right . this is a style and i tend to this . i win many games in this style . but this style is very painful . you must suffer many pressures until you win in this style . also you know that defence is more difficult than attack . I want to learn other side of the chess .
Thank you dear tonydal
Hello dear freinds .
I am a good player but my chess style is passive and often accept passive positions for material ( even a pawn ) or for not complicating the position .
If opponent give not me material or not complicate the position yet probably my position is passive or at least i cant do anything and the game go on the draw . only if my opponent make a mistake or if he does not progress with his superior position ( in situation that i am up material ) i can win the game .
i understand this problem but i cant leave or decrease level of this bad habit and i do this unconscious in games .
I ask you for help me to play in complicate positions and to sacrifice pawns for active play .
