Before I joined this site, I knew nothing about chess and had never played it before. I've played at least 25 online matches now and I've lost every single time. In my most recent match I came really close to winning, but I ran out of time and lost again. How can I improve my skills and win a match?
follow the chess.com lessons, learn a couple of different openings for each colour, including the main lines. try to occupy the center. learn tactics, and endgames.
