Hi guys! I'm Aj.
I just registered.
I just want to give everyone a quick tip that I alwals Do.
Whenever I'm black and my oponent is white, I always try to block him as well as I can.
That's why I came up with a way to block my oponent whenever he tries to play the fool's mate.
W: B:
E2-E4 e7-e6
Qd1-f3 Ng8-e7
Bf1-c4 f7-f5
-------------------------------------
To Keep Going...
W: B:
e4xf5 e6xf5
Qf3xf5 Ne7xf5
OR...
W: B:
Bc4xe6 d7xe6
e4xf5 e6xf5
Qf3xf5 Ne7xf5
-------------------------------------------------
That's Basically what you do.
I came up with that move at 4:00am when I was in my room practicing. That took me hours to discover. 🙂
So...
What do you guys think?
Originally posted by AJMagicmanHmmm. After you've played 1...e6, why do you think your opponent would move his bishop to c4? Also, why do you think your opponent would throw his queen away with 5. Qxf5? Alternatively, why do you think that your opponent would throw his bishop away with 4. Bxe6? You seem to be assuming your opponent is completely incompetent. Anyway, 1...e6 isn't bad. Normally your opponent will play 2. d4 in response. You should respond to this with 2...d5. This is called the French defense, and it is both fun, interesting, and, with proper study on your part, a tough defense to crack.

Thanks Guys! 🙂
I really apreciate your advice. This helps alot! 🙂
Well at least I'm good enough for a begginer right?
I just learned chess 2 weeks ago, and now I'm taking chess lessons at a Young People's Summer Collage. I have to pay $76 for all classes; and at least I think that's a fair price. Don't you think? 🙂
Well... "Thanks again!" 🙂
PS: If you guys could send me accouple of tips, that would be great!
I'm trying to beat my brother, and I can't.

That is so not hardcore! 😀

Hello AJ
The fact that you spent hours studying that and developed those moves (whether good or bad ones) means a lot. If you continue to work like that at your chess you'll be kicking your brothers behind in no time.
Have fun and good luck! And take people up on their offers of help around here. There are lots of players that will gladly share their advice with you.
Now go smack your brother around. On the chess board I mean.

Thanks marinakatomb .
I'll do that; but there's just one problem...
My brother doe'nt live with me, he's in Collage right now.
But he's comming over at the end of july to celebrate his birthday with us. So then I'll record all of our games so that you can help me out. 🙂
Thanks.

What about you LivingLegend ?
If you're saying blahhhhhhhh....
You must have to give me an advice.
If you don't think the other advices are good, then give me a good one. But thanks for your opinion. I'm always glad to hear from all of you. 🙂
With pleasure wib! 🙂
I use to be scared of my brother trying to beat me; but now thanks to you and everybody's help I'll beat him! I want to show him how good I am! 🙂
I'll prove to him that I'm not just a regular chess player. I'll show him who's the king. 🙂
PS: Although I gotta say... My Brother is So smart. He's been playing for a lifetime; and I just started 2 weeks ago. But that doesn't scare me!
I'll show him.
Thanks Again! 🙂
Well, the French is a common, oftenly played (also by Grandmasters) opening. Very sound and there are not, as far as I know, I seldomly play it, to many tricks in it. My only point is that because it's played so often, it's boring.
Certainly for beginning players like you, responses to 1.e4 like 1..e5 or 1..e6 are good, but personally, I like the Sicilian opening, which is 1.e4 c5, and the Scandinavian opening, 1.e4 d5, better. Bbarr is alot stronger than me though, so you'd better listen to him instead of me... ;-)
EDIT: Hm, that was me, Olav (LivingLegend), forgot that I was on redhotchess.com, Jessah (my cousin, for those who do not know) slept over a few days ago. 🙂
