How To Beat Computer on 900

Steven-Carey

Im relatively new to Chess, and practicing here against the Bot on 900 - I just cannot win. Whatever Opening I use it always has the answer to combat it. Just after some advice really on how to improve, it`s getting frustrating as I feel i`ve tried everything I can and 900 isn`t even a very good level

I'm not much higher than you, but I can beat the 900s pretty consistently if I pay attention. The advice I've been following at our level is to only think about two things for now:

  1. Follow opening principles (develop your pieces, fight for the center)
  2. Don't hang your pieces or miss it when the opponent hangs theirs.

Looking at your most recent loss to Tina Tempo, you did great in the opening, and it's only #2 that killed you. So maybe try to explicitly look at all your pieces and theirs before each move, checking whether they are attacked and/or defended.

Try playing without time control. Do a game review after each game so you can see mistakes.
