  • As soon as I saw round 2 has started I was instantly reminded of my plans to look at opening theory before it did. Looking things up after a game has started feels like (probably is) cheating, and then later I completely forget again. Does anyone have a tip for some resources on this? I don’t really get on with videos, I think a book might be a bit much but something written would be great.

  • lol... well if people are good enough to be reading about opening theory in this round then I'll last very long! :-) Looking forward to it.

    It is very much not cheating!

    Just don't use an engine during a game.

    In these daily games, chess.com even allows you to use a book or an openings DB during the game. I personally don't, but it isn't cheating.

    Post game analyisis is one of the main ways to learn. Along with out of game studying.
