yorex2011: Guy, you wil lose to Magnus Carlsen in 10 moves, the guy na hot cake for Chess Nationwide, not wit his Ruy Lopez Opening, your defense will crash, not an insult ooo |
Re: Lets Talk About Chess Game by Whizzdom(m): 4:19pm On Nov 16, 2015 |
sylvalord: We are all novices, the advice i can give you is to play chess frequently and analyse your moves or game whenever you win or lose a game, dont fear your opponent and study about chess tru the internet and watch chess videos, by d time you do this, your chess vision will become wide and knowledge. |

Re: Lets Talk About Chess Game by Nobody: 8:00pm On Nov 16, 2015 |
yorex2011:you can play magnus blindfolded? I doff my heart for you sir. |
Re: Lets Talk About Chess Game by Nobody: 8:01pm On Nov 16, 2015 |
I love the queen's gambit, but maybe that is because i have not tried other opening moves. |
Re: Lets Talk About Chess Game by yorex2011: 8:02pm On Nov 16, 2015 |
sylvalord:Abeg o.. To play blindfold chess not a big deal..anyone can be played blindfolded, I'm just saying 10 moves is too small to lose, even of its blindfold or simultaneous play |
Re: Lets Talk About Chess Game by yorex2011: 8:13pm On Nov 16, 2015 |
The real beauty is in the end game and middle game, tactics vs strategy, attack vs defense, initiative vs material, The beautiful game Personally i play Sicilian as black against e4 and semi slav against queen's gambit, then i play e4 as white, if Sicilian then i play fischer variation, if french i play tarrash variation, if e5 i play ruy lopez, its good to have spme knowledge of opening play but juat know the principles behind them and not move cramming... Ruy lopez is a compact and rigid style and can be problematic for black Sicilian offers more flexibility and sharp tactics French is a little more positional Queens gambit is also quite dynamic Gambits such as the evans gambit also can be exciting to play But all in all, the real sweetness starts in the late middlegame and endgame, knight maneuvering, sacrifices, counter sacrifices, pins and skewers, pseudo pins, desperado pieces, zwechenzugs (in-between moves) , threats and counter threats, zugwangs, poisoned pieces, deflections, over working, pawn storms.. Game too sweet abeg |

Re: Lets Talk About Chess Game by Sheikwonder(m): 9:10pm On Nov 16, 2015 |
Whizzdom: They just finished masters chess today at unilag,top prize of 1million and u dey waste ur talent for sabo? Chai! |
Re: Lets Talk About Chess Game by Sheikwonder(m): 9:25pm On Nov 16, 2015 |
yorex2011: Emma,abeg no intimidate all these small boiz 4 here abeg,wetin dem sabi 4 chess? No be people dey play multiple blindfold? If you know your openings you can survive 20 moves even against chess engines like komodo,stockfish and houdini... Meanwhile on chess moves; I for like sabi that "berlin wall" wella. Kramnik played Kasparov in 2001 as black using that defence 4 times,he didn't lose once! Even oga Kasparov confessed that the berlin wall is very complicated... As black,I play the sicilian dragon. It makes for an unpredictable endgame. As white,I play e4 with "fishes",but against strong players I either try a gambit[danish]or I try english opening. Trying to learn the london system when i have time...but e don tay since I touch chess board sha! I miss those days! |
Re: Lets Talk About Chess Game by Whizzdom(m): 9:43am On Nov 17, 2015 |
Sheikwonder: Hmm ... Why the braggin? So you are claimin grandmaster now abi? for your mind ... who knows if you are not lying sef, even if it is true ... i play chess becos i love the game not that i want to make money out of it. so back off. |
Re: Lets Talk About Chess Game by Sheikwonder(m): 10:13am On Nov 17, 2015 |
Whizzdom: What are you saying about me "Claiming G.M? I stopped playing active chess a long while ago! I was only doing you a favour. You stay at Sabo which is not far from Akoka and you say you want to play chess and get better at it,why not head over to unilag and meet solid players so you can learn from them rather than stay home? Chess is practise,constant practise. You are obviously a fish to lose in 3 moves. Go join a chess club or at least get chess books to improve on your openings so you don't lose in 3 moves again. I suggest e4,it is the most basic opening and as Fischer put it,best by test... Goodluck though...and just so you know,bragging is not exactly my thing... |
Re: Lets Talk About Chess Game by Whizzdom(m): 12:47pm On Nov 17, 2015 |
Sheikwonder: I am not a fish, and mind you these solid players of yours usually makes blunders, am a fan of Garry (d4 master) making the best moves + tactics and the endgame is what makes you a good player. I would love to challenge these players a unilag, which side in unilag do i have to go to and which day of the week. |
