@Very-Rusty saidWould you have told his wife if it was the other way around?
Actually in the real world, cheating goes on every day. I knew a woman who was cheating on her husband a friend of mine and I told him about it, and caught her in the act. Better I tell him and he get her for adulatory then her take all his money when she doesn't deserve it.

@Very-Rusty saidFair enough, thanks.
To be honest I didn't know her that well and he was a life long friend. He is not the type of person that would fool around on her to the best of my knowledge. Although we never know everything about anyone, I've learned.

@Very-Rusty saidI appreciate the honesty and understand. I’m shooting for 1400 VR, wish me luck😁.
It would be a hard call if I knew her as long as I knew him though for sure. I do get you point you were making.

@mike69 saidIn my humble opinion you are a 1400 player plus, you will get back there gain. We all have our little set backs even the Elite players on the Site.

Someday the stars will align and I'll reach 1800.
I believe you are already there!

@Very-Rusty saidI guess I have been in the 1400’s I had to check🙂. I’m going for 1550 to 1600 then😁👍.

@A-Unique-Nickname saidIt would be fun to play you but I literally would pull my hair out waiting for you to move.

@mike69 saidI agree, you have already been in the 1400's....Always aim higher, try harder and study tactics. I've found them to be a big help in my game. I have a problem of being inconsistent you can ask anyone who has played any amount of games with me.

@Very-Rusty saidThat’s boring, I enjoy actually playing. I watch some YouTube stuff but mostly just listen to them talk.

@mike69 saidCompletely agree, never opened a chess book in my life or studied any tactics. Play and work it out for yourself, play better players and learn from them. Plus, I genuinely believe that it's 99% natural ability.

@A-Unique-Nickname saidI’m not sure on the percentages but do think natural ability rates higher making it easier to grow. On the other hard you have to wonder how much some types of environments through developmental years forced these pathways of thought used in chess for survival and developing throughout life?
