The King's Indian Attack

After reading a blog column from some chess columnist, filled with great examples of how to thrash your opponent with an utterly crushing attack with the King's Indian Attack (KIA), it looked for a moment that it would be something that I would play. Hence, I tried it.

However, my sheer lack of theorectically knowledge meant that I managed to get myself into not just a losing position, but a defensive position, when the position was supposed to have one clear plan to attack. In fact, out of the 3 games I played as white, I managed to misclick moves in 2 games due to the sheer intensity of stress of failing to attack and failing to tactical traps. (most of the time hanging pieces)

Time to look for some new opening that gives a good sacrifice I guess...
