My name is Arturo, i really admire Kasparov, Karpov, Capablanca, Tal and Fischer, altough i dont think he is the best player in the world, i hate 20 move draws and want to keep improving my stile.
Preferences as white is 1.-c4 and Nf3, i have a really huge hole as white, i feel more confortable as black.
As black i usually accept the queens gambit or going for a good slav defense and, i might even get out a VERY orthodox queens gambit declined defense. Against e4 i am all double king's pawn defenses, from the Petroff to the Ruy Closed, the Ruy open, the Berlin defense (which is my favorite) the Marshall gambit (which i use only to try opening traps), and almost everithing that cames out from 1.-e4? e5!!. I hate the Two knights defense and i normally play Bc5 against the giouco piano, so if you are thinking you can use any gambit such as b4 or c3, try it, it will fail i know those lines extremely well and i pray to play against them as black. I know virtually everithing with 1.-...e5, the only thing i hate is the danish, out of that i am all open for getting opening equality within 15 moves.Sometimes i might use the King's gambit, but i am not agressive, i use it cause i KNOW IT, i know all the lines and most theory, i use it as a surprise weapon, i often win with it but i feel uncofortable with the position, cause my victories with it are mostly "homework", home preparation.
Favorite players are:
Kasparov: Balanced
Karpov: Positional
Petrosian: if i am black you can either draw or draw
Korchnoi: Iron man!
Tal: The greatest atacker of all times, hail the sacrifices.
Spassky: the last knight of the King's gambit
Capablanca: Pure depurated chess style
Fischer: 1.-e4! c5? 2.-Nf3!! 1-0
Carlos Torre Repetto: The greatest Mexican player of all times
Grunfeld: Openings, openings, openings!
I am 17 years old and have a two years playing chess.
Favorite phrases are
1.-e4!! and white wins
"the sicilian is the most varonil answer against the arrogant 1.-e4"
And this one from one of my favorite players:
"While there is a will of sacrifice there is a way of sacrifice" Mikhail Tal
By the way, Fischer was a player unable to defeat:
a)Mikhail Tal
b)Anatoly Karpov
c)Garry Kasparov
Those of you who do not think the same...common, the guy was afraid!
I forgot to tell you: my favorite player is
MIKHAIL TAL
-He kicked Fischer's but, he was spectacular and returned chess as an art, he reivindicated neorommanticism!
My favorite tournament game, i played white, and i won!, but the opening is just delitious:
1.-e3! e5??
2.-e4!!! Nf6
3.-Nc3 Bb4
4.-Nf3 0-0
5.-Nxe5! and white went to win on 43 moves, i loved that tournament game :)
