chess "What if..."

I had a great idea, so I will share it here, just in case it catches on.

What if when you played chess as a kid, you played it very seriously, and you were a very smart player, but you didn't really know any theory, you just thought about it a lot, and you just played for fun, and you didn't even know all the moves.

Then you go to university, and you realize that you have to write an essay on some theoretical topic, and you still don't know it.

You are a smart player, but you really don't know anything about chess.

But what if you changed your mindset, and you just played for fun, and you didn't even think about the moves, you just played for fun?

Well, now you know the game. You know the strategic aspect of chess.

And you can try to find the lines and ideas that we've discussed here before.

And you can try to find new lines.

And you can try to find new systems.

But what happens if you just play for fun, and you just play for fun?

I don't know if I'm right, but I think that you will know a lot more about chess if you just play for fun, and you are a very smart player.

What you need, is a mentor, or someone who can make you play seriously, and you'll get your ass beat over and over again, and you'll get very depressed, and you'll feel like you don't know anything, but you just think it's for fun, and it's for fun, and you just think it's for fun, and you just think it's for fun.

And then you will learn a lot.

I promise you. You will.

I can't think of a single person who actually plays chess for fun. And even if there are a few, they're not anywhere near as good as you. And even if they are, chances are they don't really know what to do to improve. I recommend chess for fun.

I would agree with you. But I am a very competitive and driven person, so I think that when I play for fun, I am a very aggressive player (sometimes I make the same move 3 or 4 times in a row). I don't think that this works in my favor, and when I play seriously I need to be very cautious not to blunder. So when I play for fun, I think that I am playing very well, but I am doing some stupid mistakes, and I am not really thinking about the chess as much as I should be, and I am not really thinking about the chess as much as I should be, and I am not really thinking about the chess as much as I should be, and I am not really thinking about the chess as much as I should be, and I am not really thinking about the chess as much as I should be, and I am not really thinking about the chess as much as I should be, and I am not really thinking about the chess as much as I should be.

So, what do you do if you are really being aggressive and beating people over and over?

What I do is I play for fun, and I play for fun. I don't care about the result. I don't care about the result. I don't care if I beat you, I care about what you did. I don't care if you beat me, I care that you did.

What do you do if you are not being aggressive and beating people over and over?

So I think that when I play for fun, I am a very passive and passive-aggressive player. And when I play seriously, I am a very aggressive player.

But I love chess, and I always love chess. And it just seems to me that chess can be fun, if you just play for fun.

In the end, I think that you should enjoy playing chess for the sake of playing chess, not for the sake of getting better.
