I think it is fun to see a noob learn how to play.

i just try not to go overboard - i like to just develop my pieces to sensible squares and try to take advantage of tactics my opponent doesn't see.  my biggest concern is focusing on not getting complacent and blundering.

if i know the person is new to chess i play ines they can understand ie slow build ups with only one point attacked so they can focus on defending try my best not to sac pieces and say things like good move when they play the right move basically i try to encourage them to win and build from there after all a few rating points are of no consequence if you can foster love for chess in someone

I sigh with relief- finally a chance to win! Tongue Out

I try very hard not to let my ego get the better of me.  I've lost too many games because I thought "Oh, I can beat this guy easy."  I'm not always successful, my ego doesn't always honor my requests, but I try. ;-)

I think about what I'm gonna fix for dinner and which wine we'll open.

Do I have a forced mate or a free piece?

If yes, mate/take the piece.

If no, play a random move.

Is the last sentence proper english?  I aint be knowin nothin but figurd me'd ask.

It's probably a bad idea to make fun of somebody's english while using poor english. Laughing

Ok pyle, i knew we were going to meet after your silly scam and your pathetic attempt to fill the wallet of a film director. So if you want to discuss bad ideas with me, let's have a ball! :-)

PrivatePyle99

Listen ass wipe.  The "it's a scam" debate is over.  Picture this though, imagine some 13 year old chess player who's being abused reads your stupid ass comments.  Think that kid will ever come forward about the abuse?  Fuck you.

I try to teach as I play. No need to pound a nooby into the dirt. That will only deter him from enjoying the game.

Lou-for-you

Hahaha.. Who do you think that you are to declare anything to be open for discussion or closed? And stop making silly comparisons and badmouthing. When you put yourself on the stage and play theatre, you can expect people to remember. I speak and write 5 languages, so if you want to point anything out that is wrong with my language compared to an american that enjoys writing slang, you clearly play the person and not the subject. Admit it. You deserved a bit of your own medicine. What you write makes no sense and you judge people without any basis.

Put your name on your comments, coward.  I've done so several times.

Agreed.

A quote I remember seeing on chess.com before: “When one plays a weaker rival, one should always play for beauty for the benefit of both players and the spectators, or else the game is a waste.” - GM Rossolimo

Pyle, it is not because you act foolish, that sensible people have to do the same. You have done plenty of things and i will not follow your example. Now calm down.
