I remember getting taught chess by someone my own age. I got 4 move checkmate'd by him, lost another game learning, and never lost to him again. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Anyways, am I the only person who starts out with the safer 4-move checkmate start? The bad thing is that usually the matchs become a bit too repetitive, because you've already seen everything that the other person can throw at you from the beginning.

Also, has anyone here actually used as a common practise to play defensively and just take whatever openings the opponent gives you? I do play that, and it's okay, but not the best.
