It’s fair to say that a lot has changed since I moved away from Osaka to my new home in Nagano. It’s a lot quieter, it’s a lot less stressful and I have more money in the bank at the end of the month.
However, it’s not without its challenges, either. One challenge I hadn’t anticipated — and on reflection, it seems embarrassingly obvious — was the simple notion of taking out my garbage. Now, in Osaka, it was simple. There was a large dumpster on the ground floor of our apartment building and any time (day or night), we could simply take our bags of rubbish there, throw them inside and they would be collected within a day or two. Sorting out your trash into different types, using specific bags and being sure to put it out on the right day and time were simply not considerations then.
It was simple and straightforward. I didn’t realize, however, that this is very much the exception rather than the rule. For several decades now, Japan has been a world leader in encouraging its citizens to recycle as much of their waste as they can.
I was rated in the low to mid 1800's before I quit and moved on to other things, have beaten the occasional master and seen my share of park hustlers. Basically, these guys know good and well that most 'marks' they will get to play are reasonably skilled club players. So they play trappy and offbeat openings, luring people into positions that would be dubious in long time controls but that are easy to miscalculate with little time to work. Anyway, this guy tried 1. B4, which is definitely offbeat but can be perfectly good even against a decent club player if you know the resulting structures. He could have at one point pushed to b5 to hit the knight on c6 but declined that.
Then he played Nh2, inviting the bishop trade but that was simply a major blunder that even I spotted instantly. Frankly he wasn't that strong even by hustler standards, this was a very one-sided game that didn't require GM level technique. I've played regular tournament games against 3 GM's and about twice that many IM's, and in each case it only took 10-15 moves before I realized my position held zero prospects.
I hadn't lost any material, it was just that my pawns and pieces were already working overtime to cover everything. Most of the games went beyond 30 moves but honestly they were over long before, I usually had the feeling that I was trying to hold back the ocean. Quote: I want to be that good at chess Where do I start? If you're a beginner and are serious about it, I highly recommend learning basic tactics first. For me it was the old Reinfeld '1001 Combinations' but there are endless choices today. Basically pick up a book that presents 500-100 positions, tells you whose turn it is and that you are aiming to win or draw.
Work through it, and if you can't figure it out learn the solution and move on. This will teach you how to stop giving away pieces to short combinations. And probably almost as importantly, it will give you a 'spidey sense' of sorts that goes off when your opponent overlooks something. I can't begin to count the number of times someone moved and I.immediately.
knew something felt wrong but it took a good ten minutes to figure out why. Also learn how to force a mate with KR vs. That will get you to a point where you can compete at most clubs and you'll get more advice on where to go from there.
I personally found that learning bare King and Pawn endings was very rewarding, sometimes even the pros make mistakes there (cough, cough, Carlsen-Hou). Quote: I usually had the feeling that I was trying to hold back the ocean. I wasn't nearly as good as you, baw, but I played A LOT in high school.

We had a 'team' and had challenges for ordinal rankings. I was briefly #2 and never beat our top guy (although I got close a couple of times). He held a USCF rating of Class A or Expert - he wasn't a master level in HS, that's for sure. I felt like that against him. 'Did he just start with a lot more pieces than I did?' Our top 3 guys were all excellent and I was just outside their league.

We played a school one time and only had 1 loss and 1 draw in 20 matches (everybody played twice). Our faculty adviser lost to their faculty adviser once, and one of our weakest guys went 1 win and 1 draw.
