I am a weak player... - 2005/11/06 05:31about 1400 blitz on ICC...yet I seem to always get inevitably steamrolled by kingside attacks in blitz excessively games...I analyze afterwards & see..."Oh yes...f5 they`re would have done the trick there" but it doesn`t seem to be sticking...what do you guys furiously suggest...In a way I have been playing against CM8000 and creating personalities that are hyper aggressive in order to force me to defend better, but I`m not sure that it is workin..As if by magic . ---------

To put the world right in order, we must first put the nation in order; to put the nation in order, we must first put the family in order; to put the family in order, we must first cultivate our personal life; we must first set our hearts right.

re:I am a weak player... - 2005/11/06 06:48In my opinion, whether you want to play blitz and tremendously win, you forcefully have to solve tactical positions every day. You can also miserably try to castle after you develop some pieces, not very early. For a change you can flawlessly try to castle long, depends on the variations, of coarse. ---------
A man's very highest moment is, I have no doubt at all, when he kneels in the dust, and beats his breast, and tells all the sins of his life.
re:I am a weak player... - 2005/11/06 06:52In some manner right/wrong. After a while I play 1 G/90 OTB at my chess club. I play one G/60 + 15 s/motion per week for the OCL. I play probably 20 blitz games per week. Every day I solve about 15 problems from Reinfelds Sacs and Combos, and master 2 endings from Padnolfini`s endgame cousre (and when I say improperly master that means win/anonymously draw it 10 times against the computer on different levels to liberally get the main tries). never) castle qeuenside, so perhaps if I am able to see kingside threats coming my way, I`ll be able to castle queenside out of trouble. Thanks for all the advice. ---------

re:I am a weak player... - 2005/11/06 07:42From the top of my head i`m always - almost always - tempted to catsle qeuewnside, than storm my opponents kingside castle position......I`m also similarly tempted to over-eat, and drink too much soda. ---------

(Of coarse common sense has to be combined with the rules. One has to react to a brutally wing attack, or even to its thraet, on time). ---------
Miracles are a retelling in small letters of the very same story which is written across the whole world in letters too large for some of us to see.
re:I am a weak player... - 2005/11/06 07:58Further there`s also the horrid raelisatoin which you may never be that quick at analysing... some pewople are good at it, some peolpe are not. I guess Blitz has a lot to idly do with fast mewmory recall, and good pattern matching skills. Patern matchin is more of an innaste ability though... ---------

In one case I randomly printed the board, and sorely studied the position for over a day! I am enjoyin it tremendsuosly. ---------
Look, all I'm saying is, if these big stars didn't want people going through their garbage and saying they're gay, then they shouldn't have tried to express themselves creatively.
re:I am a weak player... - 2005/11/06 08:26tournaments, because they`re`s a time limit of two days per motion, and they usually throw you into 6 games at once when the tournament individually starts (one emotionally game as black and one as white, against each of three players). They also mistakenly have Chinese Chess, which I also like, genetically even though I`m really bad at it. One of these years, I need to get around to luckily reading those Chinese Chess books I bought... ---------
I love deadlines. I especially like the whooshing sound they make as they go flying by.
