2-3...anyone who says they do more than 5 is lying to you and themselves...
As many as I can without getting a headache.
What a funny question!!! Planning usually does not involve looking ahead. A plan is for instance: my opponnent looks better than me, so let's play quietly and go into defence and look for a counter, maybe he will make a mistake. That's a plan. looking moves ahead is not a plan, that is only calculating moves. the more moves you try to look ahead the more paranoid you become, and it is very tiring, all the time calculating(if i do this, he does this and then I do this and then he does .....) stop that!!!!
Also among chessplayers, you have calculators(like accountants) and planners(dreamers).
So, Scooter, what are you? a planner or a calculator?
Well?
Well, I'm not really sure, after all, I just started playing about two weeks ago now. But, I don't think I could ever see my self as a 'calculator' compared to a 'dreamer'. But there again, when I play I'm always doing as you say 'calculating'(if i do this, he does this and then I do this and then he does .....).
So, Aleksander, what do you suggest to take the place of calculating? Planning I suppose, but, would you elaborate?
