    Nice find at the end #ThanksGMa. I think you’re viewing the moves or games as black and white when you’re more heated. Like you calculated bishop would be stuck by pawns but you had opportunities around it. Definitely difficult when emotions are in play, but respect for being able to play on because there’s a bunch of learning opportunities for all of us. End of the day it’s 1-1 and you got a good learning experience out of it, I’d consider that a win. Cheers bro!

    It's almost axiomatic that, in chess, the best learning experiences nearly always come from games that we lose. You're still finding your way in the Catalan and will benefit from all these 'learning experiences' (even if it doesn't feel like it at the time). After your analysis, you're now better equipped to deal with the set-up that Black adopted in the first game - so that's got to be a plus. The roles were reversed in the second game and you just outplayed your opponent (perhaps because you're more in your comfort zone with the Sicilian?). There wasn't much to learn from in that game - but the pleasure of chalking up a well-deserved W should definitely counterbalance some of the pain of having to accept the L in the previous game. Not a bad night's work, all in all!

      Yeah I’m definitely more comfortable in the Sicilian right now, I agree it’s always nice to finish with a win after a loss lol

    The idea is to save the bidhop, if he takes c5 you win a knight by a4 or f5 depends on witch knight takes c5.

    Kiwi against the immediate c5 you can also take on d5 and not having to worry about losing c4 and transpose to a qgd tarrasch where black has an isolated d pawn and your bishop on g2 is looking at it. Just saying a line you can do whatever you want.

    Perhaps you should try a line with the early a4, this avoids the problems wih dcx but it weakens b4.

    I think you had the right idea with exploring more complex openings but maybe pushed your comfort zone too much. That or the openings just don't suit your playstyle or understanding, could try something else like e4 stuff.

    Nice KID game a few days back! Real chess is hard. It was my experience 10 years ago that you could get to 1400 USCF OTB with a 100 move repertoire + decent tactics and thought process, but to beat 1800 USCF OTB players you need at least a 600 move repertoire. With white there are about 30 reasonable black defenses to d4. Yes you need to know at least 10 moves vs. the Albin, Chigorin, even the Baltic, the a6 Slav, the Classical, Stonewall, and Leningrad Dutch, etc, etc. 30 x 10 moves = 300 for white. If you stick with the SS, are you really ready for the Botvinnik? I used software called Chess Position Trainer, 90 minutes a day for 3 weeks, and I had a 600+ move repertoire, and was never frustrated again.
    Kids can get to 2000 without ever studying openings because they are not used to being prepared for anything. Professional adults expect to be prepared for important tasks, and are frustrated when they are unprepared. You would never walk into an engineering proposal unprepared. Good luck. I you play 3. Nc3 learning lines against the Nimzo is just as bad as the Catalan.

    Your opponent only played normal looking moves and if you do not know what to do, there must be something wrong.
