I've just read a very interesting article by computer scientist Darse Billings, on Chessbase
that speaks about different types of chess styles and their relationship with tournaments results. It turns out that a tactical oriented player who takes many risks during a tournament has more possibility to win that tournament, even if he's not the strongest player.
And a classical player, who doesn't risk too much and draws more games, even if he's the strongest player has less probability to win (an example for this in modern chess could be Wch Vladimir Kramnik). All is demonstrated by statistic means in that article.
So..it's worth risking!!!
