Finally the endgame!
When I adjusted my openings due to my tournament in December, little did I expect that that would result in more endgames. I made two adjustments. With black I adopted the simple opening system for beginners by GM Ludvig Hammer, and with white I added the "cheesecake" to my repertoire while dropping the London and the Barry attack. Both new openings are quite solid, with enough bite to walk over a higher rated player every now and then. What is more, both openings with black and white lead to similar positions. And the endgames they lead to are equal or better. I haven't decided what kind of player I am. Or want to be. In life I'm avoiding risks at all costs. But my chess history is a bit different. I played solely gambits for 7 years, just to get the hang of it. And I used to train 6 queen sacrifices before breakfast each day for years. So when I see something that should be done on the chessboard, I do it without hesitation or fear. My mentality is more easy going ...
