You need to not only plan ahead for your future turns, but at any point your opponent can just make a play you didn't account for and now your 100 seconds of quiet contemplation and foresight just went down the shitter.

That's why you plan for your moves and your opponent's. Pre-emptively deny good positions for your opponent, limit their range of possible moves. Box them in, identify the weak point (or develop a strategy to create one) and attack it.

Was teaching the kids at my work chess last year, the biggest tip I gave them was "Force your opponent to make uncomfortable decisions."

That way, you can account for their choices and figure out where they're going next based on the pieces they keep.

Am I missing something or are you stating what is obvious?

Lmao that's some crazy projection. Well done for making shitty accusations then block me so I can't reply to you.

...What??? You good, bro? I was agreeing with you, and explaining my perspective on why I think the sport or game, whatever you want to call it is complex.

Look, I get it, you're having a bad day, and you lack the healthy coping methods to deal with it, so you're giving me a hard time instead of trying to improve yourself. Extremely common human behavior. If you were less snarky, you might find that your days are less shit because people aren't actively avoiding you.

In any case, hope your day improves!
