Originally posted by moonbus I try to accumulate small advantages and slowly constrict the opponent's position (unless he gives me a tactical shot to end the game quickly).
The only thing that I try to keep in mind is to exchange pieces ASAP, in order to get an endgame of pawns. The first exchange has to be if possible the Queens.
Originally posted by robbie carrobie How would you describe your chess style?
My style? I like closed and interlocked games and slow building attacks. Always most happy when I convert a tiny opening advantage into a grinding, hard fought win. In the back of my mind lies a lingering regret. I wish I still had the burning passion for chess that I did in years past, it's still there sometimes, but not always. On my best days I'm average (about 1600 RHP) on my worst, I'm embarrassed at myself. 😛
Originally posted by robbie carrobie My style is dry and boring. I prefer playing for minority attacks on the queen side and trying to grind down my opponent in an endgame. A pathetic excuse for a chess player really.
Yep!
... you always beat me though!!!
My style is
"Wolf in sheep's clothing"
Start of timid and then explode!
eg Reti (quiet) turning into Reti gambit or Tennyson Gambit.
Pirc Defence with various aggressive options (all unsound)
Czech Benoni with cavalier king-side sacrifices

Wolf in sheep's clothing, that's brilliant, 'My grandma what big ears you have!' 😀
Your style
