Lines I would see frequently were the Falkbeer Counter Gambit, The Fischer Defense, and the KG Declined. <BR/><BR/>I have more towards favoring openings that require less study. But the KG is certainly fun!

Nice to have someone entering the heat of battle at the same time! <BR/><BR/>Do you mean level 4 with CT-art? If so, that is really the level that draws the line in the sand. Just keep it up and you'll eventually get it. <BR/><BR/>Keep up the good work!<BR/><BR/>-ChrisSamuraiPawnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17884004527147950832noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7581530152138338264.post-54509142652337275992007-07-31T05:12:00.000+02:002007-07-31T05:12:00.000+02:00Many thanks, sir pino.Many thanks, sir pino.Alastairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15964959286922823499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7581530152138338264.post-27339529336170365372007-07-30T20:04:00.000+02:002007-07-30T20:04:00.000+02:00@alastair : I don't think it will be a problem.

I think I could understand the puzzles without really needing the language: do you agree? And also, where are the answers to the puzzles in the extra and plus books?

Remember to play Nf3 very early or disaster may strike! I tried it briefly but most of my opponents declined to play the 'romantic' variations I liked so much from examining Morphy.likesforestshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12363355892919115087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7581530152138338264.post-17569366491078479832007-06-15T18:11:00.000+02:002007-06-15T18:11:00.000+02:00I'm gonna start with the KG too.
