Strangely, even though I am a novice, it is pawn structure that most excites me about Chess strategy. I feel that if anyone can one day perfect the wielding of pawns, that one would be entirely unbeatable.
i dont know this strategy at all after i watched this video.im gonna try it during a game with my friend who have been trashing and insulting me just because she is better at chess=.=
@hitmankiddo not much of a friend. chess does not give someone basis to insult someone in a serious manner. if you are playing internet blitz, then that is nintendo chess doesn't mean anything at all, has no significance. real chess doesn't give someone basis to insult someone, not the equivalent of an iq test. if someone is better than someone else, it most likely means they are better at competitive sports. it could possibly mean the person is better at a specific form of visualization.
saying that someone who is better at chess than another person is more intelligent than that person is the same as saying someone who is better poet than another person is more intelligent than the other person. you should tell your friend she is full of it and herself.
@pistraurder i disagree, someone who is good at poetry , just like chess is bound to be intelligent , while its true that not all inteligent people play chess, or for that matter write poetry, its fair to say however that you have to be clever to be good at either one of these, just the same as not all clever people are scientists but a good scientist will of course be pritty smart IF he is good !!! i mean you cant be stupid and good at any of these surely you agree with that "!
@mcpartridgeboy that wasn't what my comment meant, at all, so I don't know who you are disagreeing with. was saying there are different types of intelligences. people have different aptitudes for different things. fairly obvious. and chess, especially internet blitz chess aka nintendo chess, can't be used as means to pin point with unflinching exactitude the extent of a person's aptitude in terms of all intellectual activities, thus this person's friend has no right to be acting condescending.
Chess is such an elegant, challenging game in the hands of a GM! In reality, games rarely play out this way because novice players invariably focus on material, rather than tactic and strategy. This, I find, is extremely challenging. I wish more players thought about their game 10 moves ahead and structured their pawns and developed their pieces accordingly - games would be so much more interesting!
It is a saying that the Pawns tell the pieces where they belong.
The elegance of this game and this strategy is such that, on the short term, the tournament player can often use it against White players falling into this trap, but long term, it challenges us to take a "big picture" view of our Pawn moves because we cannot go backwards.
When people ask me to teach them openings, they are often horrified to see me make all moves for White or Black but I am trying to teach plans, not moves.
@sapium11 yes a novice player will likely not be looking 10 moves ahead (gm's rarely do this) or know much about pawn structure. this would come with time and experience. I don't understand your comment. you wish more players would do this? what tournaments are you playing? that is how people play in real life. if you are talking about internet blitz, that's not real chess, it's essentially a variant, looking that deep and evaluating pawn structures is rarely possible even for gm's in blitz.

what if Black plays ...f5 against Be2?
qwer0550 10 months ago
@qwer0550 e5 pawn would be hanging after exf5 and gxf5 forcing black to take back with Rxf5 making e4 square permanently weak.
Then you can easily see both white knights on c4 and e4 and slow pressure on e5 pawn being mounted. Black would be positionnaly lost...

Great stuff. Pawn structure is my greatest weakness and I've lost countless end games due to it.

my weakness is the end of the middle game for exactly this reason !!!!
