Well here goes...
Game 2815134 I'm White side in a KGA 1-0
Game 2737423 Here I am black in a French Defence 0-1
Game 2803313 Here I was probably too greedy and my opponent was able to give perpetual check 1/2-1/2
Game 2731573 Here I played for a Queens Gambit and my opponent did something resembling the Grunfeld I believe... I went wrong somewhere, don't think it was the opening.
Game 2651504 Here is something that happens me often... I go for mate and get mated before I finish the attack 🙁

No, I want you to play and analyze me instead.... er...
Yeah, I'm curious if a 1900 can efectivly teach me, or if I need someone with 400+ points on me?
I think to be effective a teaching someone you probably do need to be stronger all round and hell I've lost to plenty of 1600-1700 players in my time, so 400+ points is probably the cut of point to be effective.

Originally posted by Dragon FireThis is very true. I never play 1.d4 games so the positions that often arise from them take me a little longer to get to grips with than say a 1600-1700 who plays 1.d4 every game and has a natural feel for the positions/plans. I keep meaning to take up 1.d4/c4 semi regularly to solve this but still havent got around to it (lazy me 🙂 ) I tend to practice a lot against a good friend on playchess his style is totally the oppsite of mine, a lot of his candidate moves are things I wouldnt even consider but after a while Iv started to get to grips with how he sees positions and what he might play/plan in them. I think if people want to progess that they probably have to become a jack of all trades, although not really straying them their natural style too much they do have to understand others.
