I'm starting to think that looking at Tal's, Shirov's and Morphy's game is going to do me more bad than good at the long run, but what the heck the games are fun this way.

Originally posted by BedlamYou're right! I decided to try the KIA cause I'm loving to play the KID. But iwas just too passive in the opening and decided to spice things up with a little bit of madness.

Anyway thanks for the advice and keep them coming if you want to.

Game 3584882
22...Qc6
I just sent my opponent a friendly in-game message
"Ra8"
Doh!
What a cock🙄
What makes it worse is that I've done this at least twice before.

after 1....f6
2. e4 would have left you a strong position. Just try to work on the weak f6 square and you would have had your king chase. This would have been especially true after 2...e5. Then 3.Nxe5 and its a walk in the park from there.

I think you are both right but on that game I was trying to experiment with the KIA and then just got some madness flowing on me.
But if in the near future some opponent decides to weaken his f6 square on me I'll try to take advantage of it.
