Be quiet, Mr T.

Here's what I do (and I'm not a great player). I just keep moving until my opponent drops a pawn or a piece. Maybe he's had a hangover or a fight with this wife, but I take advantage of that. I also do not drink or fight with my wife so my game has improved.

5. Castle often and don't weaken your pawn structure on your castling side. Don't deplete your castled position of protective pieces until late in the game. Link your rooks.

Hmmm, no wonder I don't win more. I've only been castling, on average, once a game.

You mean you don't know about the double castle rule?

I hope you have an accident with a chip pan of boiling fat.
