So question ? I have only been play a few months. How Important Is it to Attack Or Remove your opponents piece once it crosses to your side? Is it Vital? Are there times you Just can’t find a way BUT we should always try?

I started trying to reach 120 ELO. I have played soi much over the last 3 months. I have reached 640 tonight. I have not been through this course as of yet. I have started it. Does Nelson ever come on here? He sure does advertise well. I give him props for that.

I am 58 . I have had 2 mild strokes. Doc told me playing Chess and reading a lot could help my cognition and memory . I am really spaced out from it. So I started playing a few months a go. I am up to 560 ELO BUT, I played just to challenge my mind and hopefully help out my situation. Soooooo As a result I played only to play NOT to work on…

Good for you. I am 64 and retired. I restarted playing chess after over a 40 year break as one of the activities I use to keep exercising my brain.
Chess puzzles (especially the lower rated ones) tend to emphasize mating patterns along with the tactical patterns from unit 4. Another thing that helps me are the Chess Vibes rating climb…

Open the game on chess.com and copy the URL from the address bar and paste it here. I’m not sure if you can get a link to the game from the app as I’ve always used the website for that.

I am headed towards 600 ELO In rapid chess… 10 minute games. It says ( Game rating 1100 ) and 84.5 % accuracy. What does that mean? Can anyone please help me and answer that? TY so much In advance.

First of all , it means you can beat me. Second, and this is just MY understanding, which could be inaccurate,is that the accuracy rating compared your moves vs. the computer moves. 100% means the computer didn’t find any mistakes in your play. You did what the computer would have done.
No clue what the game rating means.

the engine estimated your playing at this rating, however it does not reflect your true stength in my opinion. I am currently around 1100 and often play at a 1600-1800 level… but playing opponents at my level is tough enough as it is…..

Just really understanding the basic principles and not just considering them a mild suggestions, but rather how Important they are really helps. I am at 550 In rapid chess and a noobie. I think this course has been good thus far. I think a lot of this is in my head. getting nervous and the such. I am winning with a Plus 13 on most games. My…
