    If you are under 800, you can surpass it by playing safe, fundamental moves.
    1. Develop all your pieces before trying to attack (unless there's a tactic that will immediately win material).
    2. Keep your pieces protected. Unsafe pieces become targets. Every move should aim to make progress whilst keeping your pieces safe.
    3. Always check for threats, particularly with the opponent's queen. Your eyes should be trained for B+Q and N+Q checkmates.
    4. Don't trade active pieces for inactive pieces, and do trade inactive pieces for active pieces.
    5. Keep training tactics through puzzles. Puzzles are the way chess players maintain and improve their vision.

    I learned quite a bit from this. What I run into the most is instead of holding tension on the board the opponents are always trigger happy about trading pieces and it leaves us both with very few pieces to work with. That being said, seeing how you pin pieces giving yourself time to develop faster than the opponent was a huge help.

    • @lewisjones284

      Trade if your piece is inactive, avoid trading if your piece is active. Golden rule: "If there is an opponent's piece on your side of the board, eliminate it".

    The exact same two games in a row and your look into the camera as the second developed the same way was so funny. 🤣

    This was so helpful and hilarious too! Your mic volume is a little low, though. I have to put it on max volume, then the ads come up way too loud all of a sudden in the middle of the video
