I’m always trying to make legal mate
Always attacking same f3 pawn. Most of the time it works. But is there any other easy and weak pawn trick?

There are many opening 'tricks', but the reason they are tricks is that you rely on your opponent to fall for it. The same as just trying to attack f7 with white and f2 with black. You might win quickly every so often against a novice player but any intermediate level guy will not allow it. A bit like the early Qh5 stuff as well. Much better chances of success and much better chances to improve your game if you develop pieces normally instead.

Thanks. Yes I’m stucked. I can’t improve my game but on the other hand if i develop pieces more ‘normal’ , i am starting to the game without a plan.

So I look at a few of your games, it looks like you play no 'normal' opening, it's all about trying to quickly attack, a lot of Nh3, Bc4 with white, Nh6, Bc5 with black. Your results are mixed. You show some nice attacking tactics sometimes but you won't progress to be a better player if you continue this way. I suggest to pick an opening with white to try regularly, and a couple with black to try regularly (one against 1.e4, one against 1.d4). Try to understand what is the plan, what you are trying to achieve - just trying to remember the moves will be unsuccessful. Watch a few videos on the YouTube, look here in the forums and lessons. Play these openings again and again and again - you will get better at them and understand more and more as you do this. Remember the basics - develop pieces to active squares, don't move the same piece twice in the opening unless forced, castle your king, bring the rooks to nice files etc. And most importantly don't lose material. By doing this you will be able to attack from a better position with all your pieces on good squares, instead of from the starting position where the opponent can easily stop your attack if he is a decent player. I promise you that your rating and results will gradually improve because you will be able to win vs many players who are playing as you are doing now, breaking the 'rules' with unprovoked attacks, developing poorly etc. Lastly, I see you almost only play 5 minute games - if you really want to improve then play longer, like 30 minutes, and really try to concentrate and think about what you are doing 👍

Hi there,

From my experience, I have found that playing for tricks is a bad idea. You can make traps if they don't harm your position anyway - So if your opponent sees the trap your position is okay. But playing just for a trap will land you positionally worse. Normally you can't force such traps in chess, only set them on the side and hope your opponent falls for them.

I was about to win my last game, I had more than a min left to check mate. And I also have revived my queen. The moment I revived my queen. System declared the match as draw & given me negative marking of -16.
I think its a game glitch, & by mistake you have given my opponent positive marking of 16 & to me negative marking although I was playing with +20 points on moves.
With my last move of bishop, it was a checkmate & clear win of black.

This is a draw by stalemate, your opponent has no legal moves and by the rules of chess this is a draw. Don't let this happen again when you are so clearly winning.
