Hey there,
I see that my openings are quite weak, so decided to work on them a little bit. Basically I am looking to find someone who would like to play few blitz games with me once in a while practicing specific openings. So, if you want to help, feel free to PM me.
Openings I want to practice soon:
As black:
- French defense
- Karo-Cann
- Folklan counter gambit
- Berlin defense
- Gruenfeld
- Some kind of scheme against closed c4/nf3/b3 stuff. Didn't decide on that yet.
- Potentially another opening against d4. Either KID or queens gambit accepted.
As white:
- Closed sicilian
- 1. b3
- Ruy Lopez
Why am I not just playing in thematic tournaments? Well, usually you don't get to practice specific line, rather a whole opening at once. Also, you waste quite a bit of time playing against low rated oponents who know nothing about the opening.
p.s. I know that I play too many openings, right. I am coaching a few kids, each playing different openings, so ended up learning all of them.
