I'm sorry if this message is long, I will try not to clutter up your game thread any more when I'm done.
Spy:
You seem to have completely misread my message, or at the very least my meaning. In fact, I almost fell off my chair when I read your response.
I don't see any critique anywhere. And where have I even commented one of your moves?
I've played chess for almost 20 years now. I'm not by any means good at it, nowhere have I ever said that. To my credit I try my very best to learn though.
I have no doubts what-so-ever that your evaluation is 1000+ ELO points above mine. Since it was pretty much the opposite of the one I made, I saw a chance to learn something.
So I told you my evaluation and asked why it was wrong.
I very much wanted to listen to you, that's why I asked in the first place...
If I had any doubts about your comments I would not waste my time asking you. WHERE exactly does it appear as if I do?
Okay, some small advice at least, thank you. What exactly should I be doing then? It's not like my chess intuition is at your level...
Please don't. It would not teach me anything I can use in my games. (However, being able to evaluate a position better would.)
I have played a few games against Bash on this forum. Although I have lost every game he's pretty good at explaining things to me. For a mediocre club player like me, it's a very good learning experience.
If you can do the same, then I would love to lose a game or two against you whenever you have the time.
If on the other hand you're going to get angry with me for asking for advice, then I will have to respectfully decline.
