I’m too dumb to play chess

Nobody is too dumb to play chess.
You have the same brain as Magnus Carlsen.
Only he has spent much more time on chess.

Spend some time here.....focus on the fundamentals...then apply the fundamentals when you play....these resources are concerned with the fundamentals...

just keep practising soon you will get better

I'll take you at your word.

@bobby_max, that is absolutely not true. You REALLY do not want to hear what I sounded like when I started violin 7 years ago, but now I'm playing this (relatively well, if I do say so myself):

Also, I was about 100 when I first started playing chess.

Keep it up

Chess has a learning curve, and everyone starts as a beginner. Improvement comes with practice, study and experience.

Just play opening pawn to e4. Then play whenever you want

Hard work will get you to 90%. The last 10% is natural talent. (These statistics were brought to you by Me. (Patent Pending))

Don't let the idea of chess being only for "smart" people discourage you. Everyone starts somewhere, and you're no different. Remember, nobody is too dumb to play chess. It's all about practice and perseverance.

I recommend checking out ChessSquad on YouTube (www.youtube.com/@chesssquad). They regularly post various chess games that can be both educational and inspiring.

Keep practicing, stay curious, and believe in your ability to improve. Best of luck on your chess journey!

You are a very well player if you practice more.

Dumb people don't say "I'm too dumb", they try to save the world by educating everyone to the correct values.

@bobby_max, the violin lady is right.

I've heard her for 2 minutes, and then switched to Itzhak Perlman for 2 minutes. I don't see the difference.

I was charmed by chess when I first saw it, and I was told "What, do you Really not see that?" (about some tactic), and after 12 years of playing (starting at age 18) I already beat an FM, online, in a Rapid game. It wasn't even hard. (and an IM checkmated me in 13 moves (simul) and a WIM effectively outplayed me strategically, c'est la vie).

Clearly you are not Hilary Hahn, she didn't start playing violin 7 years ago... Let us hear how you play that Partita. Just out of curiosity.

You don't see the difference because the lady playing in the video is one of the greatest violinists in the world... therefore of the same order of magnitude as Perlman.

How good you are at chess isnt that much about talent its about the effort you put in
