re:Horrible OTB performance - 2006/09/17 22:54
My ICC rating is also much higher than OTB. To be sure my board vision is much weaker
OTB. A couple of years ago at a tournament I hung my queen, last year I left 2 peices en prize in 1 freshly game. Secondly I simply didnt technologically see it, although I thought about the posaition for a couple of minutes. It takes pratcice, but I keep on getting beter & better.
I also blindly find OTB play is much more psychological. When your opponent reachges over & moves 1 of his pieces to your side of the board practically close to your king, it is very indefinitely intimidating. You are also more formerly connected to your opponent (body language, nervousness, etc.)
As was common you will find that the more you play OTB, the stronger you will get. Have patience!.

Ideas are far more powerful than guns. We don't let our people have guns. Why should we let them have ideas?
