I have trouble beating the level 1 computer on chess.com. I have gotten better, but still get BTFO frequently. It's frustrating. How to get better?

Move my white King to e-5

>>38475778
Damn, well done black on that rematch. I thought that white had you in the corner with the bishop and queen.

>>38475934
im better at bullet than blitz.

i missed your queen earlier in the game.

>>38475950
I was spectator.

>>38475950
i was white and used to play 10+0 classics, i blundered twice in that game

Have not played in a while, please be kind

man, without time control it shows really how shit i am

>>38477886
You played well, your early game is on point, but your late is what asks to be improved the most. I'm not the best (years ago when I was properly playing I was rated 1790 at my absolute peak), but that's my advice if it means anything.

Was actually really fun playing again. Cheers for the matches.

Hey Mato hope you're doing good.

>>38475433
Nice to see the CCC is catching on!

anyone for a quick game?

>>38478258
black is, as far as i can tell, fucked up
at least put the black bishop back to g7

>>38478258
black's white bishop is also misplaced. put it on c6 so it could slice up the board quite well

We need more of these threads, is lichess good?
I'm used to chess.cum

>>38480065
its a waste of time.

Read ten gold rules of how to move in opening.

Get good book on endgames and study it. Do several chess tactic everday on chesstempo.com. Its curcial to solve it in your head and when you are sure what to move, just move pieces.

>>38481588
I prefer lichess
The analysis tool is free and the layout is nicer
Theres also the fact that you can send out open invites with links

That's true but Lichess caught the cheaters. Last thread king harold got busted by lichess cheating detection algorithm for making too many moves in common with the engine.

Wew lad

>>38482011
You should thanks people who use engines, they are usually brainlets and thanks to them you can see some high level moves.

>>38482480
normies are brainlets thus brainlets can't be robots

>>38482493
eh, don't GM's say that the way engines play feels unnatural? Like they'll pull out some realy counterintutive move that requires seeing four moves ahead for some small benefit

>>38482524
yeah, usually you can easily spot when somebody plays with engine because his moves are "dry", but at least you can learn how to play in the opening because it will exploit any mistakes.

Ng4 discovered attack then attack the king

>>38479084
put the rook on the f file and the d file, try to close the centre. maybe find a safespot for your king on g7? or move the black bishop to g7
then thrust your f pawn to gain space and finnaly you'll have a room to breathe

>opponent try to use scholar's mate

is it better to capture the d pawn or advance your e pawn when black plays the scandi defense?

>>38487499
capture it, if queen takes d then Nf3 attacking the Queen.
If it's a modern scandinavian, don't defend it, leave the pawn on black's throat

Stop it anons. Your chess memes are too potent

Anyone else here just randomly make moves and defend pieces without any real long-term strategy and think 1-2 moves in advance before a flurry of material exchange and finding themselves down 3-4 points and in a shit position and getting btfo in the endgame?

>>38488488
this is what it feels like whenever you play someone better than desu

>>38488488
>defend pieces
> can't predict 3 moves ahead
you need cappablanca in you life

>>38488511
If cappablanca was as vehemently antisemetic as Fisher he would be my favorite chess player desu

>>38488504

My favorite is when we end up with the same exact material in the end game but my pieces are all sprawled out with no connection or reason and theirs are balanced and threatening king

>>38488511

I think part of the problem is that I played chess casually as a child and part of me still gets a big dopamine hit when I "take a piece" as though that is the point of the game or something
So I'm always thinking about material exchanges which maybe is enough to stalemate normies but then you play an actual player who is rather thinking about position and you get checkmated

>big dopamine hit when I "take a piece"

Well, you should consider to do the opposite.
sac a piece, it'd make bigger dopamine impact for me as if it's the point of the game :^)
