        CJ posted an update

        a year ago

        I mentioned in sub comments about Owens where the kings pawn is pushed on the second move and then has an early queen attack to complicate the fianchetto majorly. It messed my up on my first encounter and was literally going to post the game here, when the same exact tactic showed up again. Second time I won even with a couple of mistakes (My board scanning skills are increasing but are not yet very good.) So here are the two games with an early queen attack. I’ll post an image for the initial position that threw me so badly.

            Yes. Need more repeats. Seriously, my ELO isn’t changing much yet because I’ve got to get the new openings working plus unlearn some bad habits. People who win with early queen moves will plateau fairly early on I’ve observed. But it’s always nice to win.

            With chess, you can say it’s how you play the game because if you do it right you win. But now only the bots do it right most the time and not even then in bot vs bot.

              Unlearning bad habits is what I need to do too . My worst was prob playing too quickly leading to ……😱 . Nelson’s blunder check list has certainly slowed me down a lot , hopefully leading to better moves ! Also playing the odd daily game has helped with this too .

                I’m still getting through a mid game chapters. A significant problem I’m getting into now is I know something was covered in a lesson but I can’t properly remember how to respond. I am remembering a a lot especially tactics but all the weird things that can happen in the openings and often doesn’t mean I remember the correct response 20 games previous.
