roadblock

You can't just repeatedly play the opening you actually have to do the strategy behind it and that's sometimes taking out of prep and taking that free piece ,or attacking ,or defending against opponents threats

In this game https://www.chess.com/analysis/game/live/108165851692?tab=review&move=12 this isn't a queen attack that's just moving your queen out early

Now the wayward queen attack is different yes your moving your queen out too early but you actually have a threat

All your doing is giving your opponents targets without attacking anything yourself in that game

yes i see will try something different tomorrow hold my queen in check on the back row longer i guess -- also i am trying that new opening on a ten min game tomorrow if i can get white to try it on -- to see what i am really doing with this type of new opening -- after i try that then i will go back to not taking my queen out till at least move 12 or 15 and resorting to my old opening

tonight i dropped quite a few down to just above 150 again ---- i will never get over 200 again i think------ night all the meds are taking hold now -- see you in the morning

thats the problem i don't know what i did wrong till i make the wrong move -- reviewing what i did wrong doesn't help i need to know what to do right before i make a mistake.. but thanks for the input anyways -- i find playing against bots with all the help features turned on it helps it shows what to do before i do the wrong thing -- but i can only do a few of those before it gets boring so three is my max but i will try a few of those this morning just to beef up a little

Reviewing can help just try it it won't work the first time maybe you'll stay stuck but it's still important to review your games maybe if you notice your mistakes after your games during analyse you'll start to realize hem during game

well viewing showed me where i went wrong on that game the second move in from there it was down hill --- will try another game and review if it lets me next game one more game this morning under 150 now -- hope the slide can be stopped

Try to recognize what you did wrong despite stockfish even if you don't know what your doing

friday morning played very poorly was really still asleep i think-- played to slowly and didn't look at the board a move or two ahead -- i find that hard to do --- but won more games than lost so above 160 again-- my opponents where really bad and let me win a couple of games i will a couple more this morning to see if the trend will continue and i play bad players or at least worse than me -- which is hard to phantom

saturday morning same last night over 170 now

saturday night completely different lost all my games--- now way under 150 -- to many games i played badly and other games they used that bishop queen attack thing again which i have no defense for and still play my opening maybe late tonight i will try again as my meds are working like they should these nights -- maybe i can turn things around -- then again maybe its 100 here we come again time -- who knows see you later

Why don't you have a defence for the queen+bishop attack?

i don't know one i start my opening and by the time i realize they are doing that low life opening move - i lose -- if i try to guess thats it coming then i don't have a proper opening then i lose later on -- to me its a catch 22 thing -- don't i wait to see if the players is using that opening and then not be early enough to get my opening up and running -- iam at a puzzle what to think now just lost three games this morning to that opening you can only ban so many people that use it -- so thats really not a option -- anymore - well getting closer to 100 again -- will try a different approach this sunday morning see what happens

I know a defence for Scholar's Mate (The Queen+Bishop opening attack). If the queen is attacking from h4 play g3, If the queen is attacking from above play Nf3, If the queen is making her way to in front of the bishop, play Nf3.

this won't help all the time but it works against the main versions of the attack

If you see anything that appears to be some variant of the attack, play Qe2 and trade queens if they continue the attack.

Also here's some easy openings for white:

Ruy Lopez

Not many good ways your opponent can respond to this opening.

Center Game

A simple opening, all you really need to know are the responses to exd4, c5, f5, and d5.

Queen's Gambit

Queen's Gambit: Accepted is easy to learn and most of the time you can play dxe5 in response to Queen's Gambit: Declined. Also leads into the Slav Defense which I would recommend to respond to with Nf3.

London System

London system is easy to learn because you can play the same set of moves for almost all of black's responses.

Easy openings for Black:

Sicilian Defense

I never learned the details of this specific opening, but it still works for me despite not knowing the strategy or thinking behind it. So it should be easy to understand and learn

French Defense

Same explanation as Sicilian Defense

Caro-Kann

Strong when you know what to do and your opponent doesn't

Indian Game & King's Indian Defense

This is basically Black's London System, you can play the same moves for almost all responses.

Better to learn to defend against it and have a chance of winning later than to play moves that lose the game immediately.

No one knows how to respond so it's easy

The problem is your opponent knows how to respond theirs too many options for black that make it really hard to play plus 100s pretty much playr andon openings you need to know how to counter that first

ok i will study what you said -- still under 140 as of sunday afternoon before med nap
