- tintor 1mo agoIt makes sense for practice.
- f311a 1mo agoWell, people don't play like computers, so this kind of practice can be useless.
- wvbdmp 1mo agoHow much of professional chess is metagaming the opponent vs. finding the best move from current game state?
- XCSme 1mo agoFrom what pros are saying after matches, especially in classical chess, it's almost always preparation and metagaming the opponent vs finding good moves. It's a lot of mind games involved, going for specific openings, repeating same moves as last match, doing a poor by surprising, move etc. Many GMs said that to win a match you have to play non-ideal moves many times, otherwise it will likely end in a draw.
