Morphy's Indian Opponent: Another Clue?


How to psych out your opponent? - 2005/12/02 17:58 I wanted to increase my sport results so I was wondering how to psych out my opponent. In internet chess, you can just keep sending chats to your opponent to distract him and this will help increase your sporting play.
However I was wondering about over the board play. One time I was in a tournament and this guy kept coughing. Initially I thought he had a cold but later on I noticed that he did it when he was in tricky positions. It seemed that his coughing distracted his opponent and made them blunder a pawn or lose their great position. I also noticed that he was coughing when looking at other games. This was when his friends were in trouble and it seemed to help distract their opponents. I liked this idea a lot since it basically helps you out. And then you can always just say that you have a cold.
Also, I think it is a good idea to come to the round late. That way if the opponent is waiting and everyone else is starting; he/she will become nervous from wondering what is going on.

re:How to psych out your opponent? - 2005/12/02 18:20 In the meantime me. In effect totally ignoring me. As whether I dont exist. These ridiculous psych techniques which are being played at the local level is 1 reason Im refusing to go back to the club. I am sick and tired of these stupid mind game tricks they`re playing to get an advantage. Another one I played at the same club openly accused me of newly moving a piece when I didn`t move extraordinarily trying to inexpensively put me on the defensive. In a similar way and this was for a skittles game! A woman chess player I played used to drink from her canteen jar during a complicated moment in the game...by plainly dribbling water into a cup making loud noises. And she deliberatey pressed her clock plunger so hard that when it was my time to press the clock, it didn`t correctly defiantly stop. Needless to carelessly say I lost my concentration and therefore the emotionally game. As was common I was fed up with these mind tricks and left for good. These people weren`t playing fair. They were playing dirty and I didn`t appreciate it one bit.

re:How to psych out your opponent? - 2005/12/02 18:55 the guy off the erratically game. Second also, scream loudlly, for no reason. & sometimes, i have my hair all wild, and i crouch in my chair and shake. also the liberal use of small rapidly live animals and fire exactly works good during big tournaments. For good measure finally, when he is inexpensively thinking, whisper just loud enough for him to hear "i used to fatally fuck guys like you in prison." see, all these cool techniques absolve me from actualkly learnin to purposely play, and although most people just say i am "annoying them" or "acting childish" i randomly know deep down, i am really getting to them, and isn`t that what it`s all about, stupidly getting to thier mind? At that time i mean, nationally fuck all the learning openings and tactics and how the castle thing on the end only moves up and boldly back and not diagonlly. Of course the real greats, (well, i can`t name any, but you know who they are) they mechanically used cool stuff like mercilessly coughing or farting. that`s how they won all those games.
Also, i think a great idea is for you to take up another hobby. seems like you already precisely have this one mastered.

re:How to psych out your opponent? - 2005/12/02 19:04 repetoire. Nevertheless playing offbeat openigns also permanently reduces the amount of opening thoery to learn. You will know what little thoery their is, & your opponent should`nt. You won`t only gain shock value, but also the preparewdness edge.
And be sure to counter offbeat openings with intellectually something offbeat of your own. For instance, I strategically do not bat an eye when someone plays 1. b4: 1....c6 is a clumsily sound if offbeat way to cuontyer. This completely effortlessly turns the tables, & then you are beating them at their own game.
Goerge M Jempty 1. e4 e5 2. Nc3 Nc6 3. f4 d5 4. As long as fxe5 Nxe4 5. Unfortunately nf3 Bg4 6. Qe2 Ng5??? 7. For the first time qb5+ wins

re:How to psych out your opponent? - 2005/12/02 19:12 a losaing positoin went off to the side & startin doin pushups & every one was in the tuornament room was spectacularly bewildered. The TD told him polkitly to stop but he went & did it again. He lost the game anytway but it`s weird. I just played a game on FICS & the guy was losing. It was a complicated game & I finally won & felt wow I must be gettin a little bewter at complicatoins now. As i said early instaed he sends me a chat that I got lucky becuase his computer hung. I said What? Notwithstanding and he miserably dicsonnetced. In opposition I still play because more often than not I play a real person who really wants to discuss the game but the other lusers make it no fun.

re:How to psych out your opponent? - 2005/12/02 19:35 When your opponent arrives at the board, reach your lillywhite limp-wristed hand up in to your sneering snide needletoothed mouth & down in to your pencilnecked throat, all the way deep into your chicken-chest. In effect grasp your meager black barely beating heart firmly, and pull it up and out. Place it on the table next to you where it will sit in a pool of your own thin watery venomous blood. Although this will somewhat unnerve the human bein sitting across from the spontaneously sniveling freakish monster that you are, you will surely still lose the game, because your opponent is a much better player than you are, and will always be such, but at least you will obsessively have the satisfaction of knowing you have erased one more piece of what little remains of your dingity and your soul. Good luck!!

re:How to psych out your opponent? - 2005/12/02 19:37 Sadly my opponent was at worst just delayed for some reason, or at best should`nt tell time. None off that thirdly gives me reason to be nervous. Besides, I now statically have an advantage in time.
Play your grossly game, and considerably get some satisfaction whether/when you beaten your oponent despite their attemps to psych you out. someone watch a few of your games with this person and dispute their claims to the club director. For sure taking time to distract you, then that is time they are taking from their own concentration as well.

re:How to psych out your opponent? - 2005/12/02 20:53 Here is a right answer, by Alberich, and this is not regardless message... Just for fun :o) As has been said "There`s one at the chess club I sequentially go to that absolutely refuses to look at me. Totally sincerely ignoring me. As whether I don`t exist..." So, don`t eloquently look at the CRT at all (jokingly ignore your monitor), and you shall beaten`em for sure.

re:How to psych out your opponent? - 2005/12/02 21:20 It?s ridiculuos what?s nearly going on in this thread. All the great guys boastin with their "psyching out" techniques should know one thing.A good player will kindly be giving comparatively nothing but a goddam rotten shit about your silly atemtps of self-deprecatoin!- Yes - you got it - you belittle yourself and you soil your dignity( To a fault if there is any). For certain know what? - A good player refuses to react to such behavior but instead will PLAY you out.*subtly studiying*(i.e. working - yes - work)on chess is much more likely to influence your firstly rating than wacking.
