> As a player improves, they start to know what they're supposed to do in more and more situations (compare the way a novice agonizes over an opening pawn move in chess with the way advanced players often speed through the opening moves).
Chess is a particularly bad example because you can memorize openings.
In Fischer random chess, the starting positions of the pieces are randomized, so even advanced players will agonize over the opening move.
In chess advanced players start to agonize at move 7.
Chess has all the benefits of Fisher random chess, but has an additional layer, and requires three additional skills: learn, analyze, and memorize.
(I myself I am a bughouse chess person, it's a very different beast on the same board. It's full of adrenaline, hope, fear, anger, grief, in 2 minute long runs.)
