    Benefits of Playing Chess:
    ​- Promotes brain growth
    - Increases problem-solving skills
    - It exercises both sides of the brain
    - Raises your IQ
    - Sparks your creativity
    - Teaches planning and foresight
    - Teaches patience and concentration
    - Optimizes memory improvement
    - Improves recovery from stroke or disability
    - Helps treat ADHD
    Chess is an intellectual battle where players are exposed to numerous mental processes such as analysis, attention to detail, synthesis, concentration, planning and foresight. Psychological factors are also present on and off the board; playing Chess stimulates our imagination and creativity. Every single move a player makes is the result of a deep analysis based on the elements presented on the battlefield.
    Chess in its essence teaches us psychological, sociological and even moral values. In a Chess game, both players start with the same amount of material and time. The fact that the white pieces move first is considered to be practically irrelevant -especially because a player typically plays one game as white and one game as black. Consequently, the final result of the battle solely depends on each player. It doesn’t matter if you win by taking advantage of your opponent’s mistakes or by simply avoiding mistakes yourself. Truth is that Chess is an extremely individual sport and our defeats can only be blamed on ourselves and no one else. And this, in the end, only benefits us because we learn to be and feel responsible for our actions and never come up with excuses to justify ourselves.
    We also learn that when it comes to our victories on the board, our opponent's mistakes play a more significant role than our own skills. Let’s not forget that a Chess game without any mistakes would be a draw. This way, Chess provides us with another valuable life lesson: be humble at all times.

    I never played this opening before; I'm usually d4 with white. First game I beat a WCM with it. The openings I've learned from you have changed the way I see the board; I've always been very practical and never bothered with gambits or studying openings; I just like to get to the middle game where I can use my knowledge of chess without tricks. You've made chess so much more enjoyable!! I was ok before..1700-1900 blitz on Lichess. My rating went down a bit learning them, however I don't run so hot and cold like I used to. I play the Colle religiously lately and I'm like 80 to 95% accurate with it

Whenever I look for advice on it people just say, "Transpose into the Kings Gambit" which I'm not very comfortable playing.

    I'm curious about your thoughts on the Hippopotamus Defence as well, as it's another opening with an animal's name.

Also, I find myself studying the Larsen Opening. Bird's Opening and the Polar Bear Opening by Henrik Danielsen Read and enjoy!
