How to avoid from inaccuracies/mistakes? (Not blunders)


If you say that against a 1600+ player playing without blundering is not enough, then you have never played against 2000+. Just look at my games. There are many mistakes from both sides - mine and my opponent's. Yes, a 1100 player knows better playing against a 1600 player. I don't count bots, because they can't do the mistakes, that people do. I count only games against a player in my message

Good question. Blunder prevention seem only half the battle, as often small incremental moves end up with a dominant position for one side.

If you don't know what to do, moving a Pawn is just about the WORST idea.

It's rare you blunder against a +2000 and who doesn't understand your blunder. When I look at my OK played lost games, I see that I didn't blunder, but have done a few mistakes and my opponent has found them and have some great moves and after that, I couldn't handle the position and lost. And about the bots, yeah. Bots are different. I can win L8 1200 without trying hard. But winning against a 1200 player is completely different as some times they have nice or brilliant ideas and sometimes suddenly blunder or mistake.

Tis means that one side plays some inaccuracies/mistakes and the other side understands them and gets a better position.

"How to avoid from inaccuracies" ++ Inaccuracies do not exist. A move either deteriorates the game state draw / lost / won, or not. If it changes the game state, then it is a mistake (?) or a blunder (??). If it does not change the game state, then it is not inaccurate.
"mistakes?" ++ Avoiding mistakes is the key to chess.
If you make no mistakes, then you cannot lose a game of chess.
"suddenly engine plays a move which makes my position bad and makes it about +2 or -2."
++ No, the engine cannot make your position bad.
You made your own position bad by playing a mistake and the engine exploits that.
"Any tips for avoiding from the mistakes?"
++ 'When you see a good move, look for a better one.' - Lasker
"Sometimes you don't know what to play" ++ Think until you know.
"finding your opponents' mistakes" ++ Always look at the downsides of your opponent's last move. Did it create any weakness? Did it give up protecting something?

@tygxc Thank you, it was also helpful a lot. Is playing unrated 10|0 rapid games (as a 1100) ok? (With 1200-1350 players) Or I should play 15|5 ?

@likechess78 if you dont know what to play at certain positions, maybe try this principle when you make a move 1. try to find an attacking move as an attacking move is almost always the best. 2. if theres no attacking move, prepare: what i mean by prepare is. developing a piece or putting one of your minor piece to its best square. hope it helps
