You really need to get those writing errors under control, Lance.
Why c5? What does it do for you? Why is it better than e5, which already does three good things for you? I assume you have snapped up that move, which is the Sicilian defence, in a book. But have you read about the idea behind c5? Can you implement that complex set of ideas?
e7-e5
- blocks the white pwan in the centre
- gives oyu a foothold in the centre yourself (golden rule: always try to hold at least one pawn in the centre)
-opens the diagonal for the king'S bishop, leaving you the choice to develope it beofre the king's knight, if desired,
- brings oyu one move closer to casteling
-denies white the easy occupation of the centre by moving d2-d4.
Whoops, that are not threee but five good reasons.
c7-c5
- denies White the move d2-d4
- opens the diagonal d8-a5 for the Queen (that should not move that early anyway, so that advantage comes too early anyway)
And that in the immidiate turn seems to be all that it is doing. It does not help to develope your figures. It does not improvce your king'S safety perspectives. It does not free any of the bishops. It cannot be covered without moving another pawn, currently. So, why c5?
Gentlemen, you two decide over your next move now, so that Letum can reply.
