Learn tactics (Lichess), play 15|10, think about every move (don’t Blunder), play London and Caro Kann This helped me when I was 500. 1 year later and I am 1940 Fide

Yes stop it. Find an internship, start investing, go to gym. Chess is very addictive it can ruin your 20s.

I think you have better things to do at 20 than to invest time in chess, If you want to just let it as a side hobby do it, or just stop playing

I play the smith morra gambit against the sicilian and black doesnt know what to do most of the time and end up in a sucky position. Atleast in my elo range (1500 - 1600)

@@ClariseFamily I mean yeah. We 1600s do suck and we know it 😅. But most folks are below this elo anyway. Also smith morra gambit is a legit and sound opening against Sicilian. Sound because u don't have a easy refutation of that gambit. And it is practical too.i know little theory and I am just winning a lot of matches when opponents play Sicilian anyway. But when u know all theory of that opening ( smith morra gambit is surprisingly more theoretical), u will dominate even master level players. Like Marc esserman plays this opening and he beats IMs, GMs, etc not just in blitz, bullet and rapid but also classical. I am not saying sicilian is a bad opening. Just that white players have some aggressive weapons against it.

Very great instructional video! 19:15 how about attacking the queen with C4 supported by the bishop? Or will the double pawn move by white make it okay to move twice with queen as black?

I am around 1000 and I‘ve hardly ever won with the Sicilian Defense.. I disagree, I think it’s not very beginner friendly, especially not against stronger players. There are just so many lines to consider and I can’t remember them. What am I doing wrong?
