Are you sure this is chess advice?"

 

I am sure about me!

Everyone has own set of Joy, - like a God, Friend, Game, Love, Entertainment, Study...

What you love to do is your Joy!

Hi everyone,

Come on, we are all skilled players here.  We know when we reach a point where we will not be able to come back, unless our opponent blunders.  Yes, we should resign, with dignity, at that point.  No shame in losing, we all do.  Chess, by it's nature dictates that the vast majority of us will lose 50% (doesn't it?).  Better to resign and spend a little time reviewing our loss, than to stumble thru an untenable position that we are sure to lose.  I also think it is discortious to our opponent.  If you are playing skilled players in rated games, be big, do the right thing, resign your lost games.  You will be a better player for it.

No! We should not resign by Auto at any Lost position, regarding of specific situation! Chess will cease, at that case!

Where is a  Mind Turning Point of our Decision to fight for the end or give up? Decide it! This is your Human Challenge!

Mobilize all your Intellect, or take is easy now, play low and slow...

 You will never grow up as a Chess Player, if you gonna set up your fighting spirit too low! It can be a lack of life energy, if you cannot overcome oneself and turn the situation to more pleasant!

And the #1 Question is: Why you got into the loosing Trap so Easy?

Lack of Chess Skills? Unlucky? Starving to Think? Rushing to last Train to Date?

 Why you got so many Blunders, Loss?

Work it Out! Prevent your Failure! Grow up!

Play your Life!

I don't know about any of you, but I have won several games where i was in a losing position,because my opponents made a tactical error.(usually in the end game) None of them were bad players they just made a hasty move,too confident of the win I suppose. I will admit though that most games when you are in a losing position turn out bad for you. Still,I say stay in it for awhile just to see if your opponent blunders. Even if the blunder is not a huge one it may allow you to force a draw,which is better than a loss any day.

The more Chess Skills you got as a Result of your Traing and Playing, the bigger your Chess Arsenal!

The size here does a Matter! You have more choices in the Battles, if you are more Fit and Skilled! It can Help you to Save or Win a "lost" Game!

You does simply had more Chess Ideas to Explode!

It is surprising how many supposedly "winning" positions are actually draws even with correct play. "

 

A lot of looks like a Win Positions are just a Draw, actually!

Averbuch was on a Soviet Chess Olympic Team, as a Coach.

He gave a positions to World Chess Champions and Ex-Champions, along with just regular Soviet GM, like a Candidates to World Chess Titles!

And all GMs got a headache to decide, is it a Winning position or Draw, and what they shall to play to prove it?

GM Seiravan played a Blitz Chess Match with Kasparov in the Kasparov home at the Moscow...

Kasparov loudly told: "Draw!"

Seiravan was thinking, that his position is Winning!

 Kasparov left the room...

He returned to room with a Chess Book of Rooks Endings, by Minev, opened the book and show the page with same position! Draw!

 Just Skills!

Just Pretty Girls Weapons of Mass Destruction!

I won a few hundred more loosing games!

Some of them by Time-Out, some by Stalemates, Perpetual Checks, blunders of opponents, and own luck!

Fight as a skilled player for the nice Win at most of your games...

Joy the Fight!
