I'll play you after Riz. I only ever practice with white so if you create the game you'll have a fair chance
http://www.youtube.com/user/ChessNetwork/videos?sort=da&view=0&flow=grid Best place to start for anybody wanting to get better imo. Self taught Master whose elo ranking is about double mine. His early vids have a lot of basic opening and middle game tactics and strategy and he explains everything really well for beginners. The puzzles he puts up are good ways of learning to "see" the board and how the pieces can work. His more recent vids are some really great commentary and analysis of his own and other peoples games.
