Dear chess players,

here is one of the best games I have played the last days, although i am not in the best shape and I think i got some kind of weakness in my opening but there are more tactics to discuss about. After winning some games i feel like i am doing well, the improvement in my performance is reflected on the results. I need to keep in shape looking forward to the next wins and perfectioning the opening. I got 5 games won in a row and i i think it's a solid step in order to get to the next level

 

here is one of my 5 games i won:

To be honest that is a bit weird. So much so that I am not sure it is not a joke. But I will take it as face value. 

The good news is that you demonstrate some tactical ability. Generally you notice when your pieces are attacked or when you have the chance to win material. 

The less good news is that your understanding of opening principles seems to be almost non-existent. In this game it was ok - against stronger opponents you will be ripped apart. 

Take a look at this short article on the opening - http://exeterchessclub.org.uk/content/ten-rules-opening

Meanwhile, if you just take away three things that would be good:

1. Try to move each knight and bishop once (and once only) in the opening. 

2. Do not move the king at all until you can castle.

3. Do not move the queen until you have got your bishops and knights in play and you have moved some pawns into the centre.

I don't like any theory about chess, its like trash. Do you really think you need to read books and study to enjoy playing a game? No sense. The game should be based on your own ability and not in copying what books say. The only thing that this does is to make you play like a robot. Seems like you only have to remember what the theory says to play chess. I disagree with all this trash. I say NO to that sh**t Therefore i created my own opening. The results are positive for me and i am satisfied with my win

10.Be2 looks like a mistake. Ke2 was more consistent.
