I am stuck for what to play to start a game

Thanks but I believe that 0.17 is not enough for even the best computers to win.

just a suggestion.. if you create your own tactics you can (beginning with it, don't worry losses but find them wins if you gained experience what not to do.) build it each time you're the color you created as to better positioning your moves the next game.

 

I have done this and one good reason is because many read up on tactics and that's not to me the fun of this great game, and I'm very happy that I decided making my own tactic, have won some great games, not to mention you throw off those that read on them since it's your very own creation!

 

I thought I'd share a couple wins.

these 2 are other wins with my tactic, 2nd one in 14 moves.

e4 or d4 or Nf3 all seem to do the trick

Bobby Fisher: " e4  - best by test "

This is not tennis, you can't score with the serve.

I always start by sneezing on my opponent's pieces, or at least the ones I don't want him/her too move. Doesn't work as well with online so be warned

Thanks, I have started with e4 because Fischer says that it was best

E4, tactically winning.

Then it is better just to resign
