I think this is my first win against a 2000+ player. Nothing fancy, more of a positional game. The time control was 30 0, but when the game was over we each still had over 25 minutes left on our clock

Nice checkmate!  I like how you utilized your King.  Congratulations!

thanks I'm really estatic about it!

I sent it for computer analysis, I missed 38...Rh3#

11...c5 is really bad. You just made your d-pawn backward for no reason.

12...Re8 13.Rfd1 loses a pawn. Maybe you could try 12...Be6.

26...Rb3 27.Rd1 f5 looks a little safer. Now White can't mess with e6. I'm not so great with endgames.

38.g3 looks like game over for white.

Congrats! :)

You missed 38...Rh3#

thanks @AnthonyCG for the input!

@kgwkyle thanks!

@nate23 I know :)

Why wouldn't Rh3 instead of g3 on move 38 be checkmate?

Well played. This was a 2000+ blitz player? They made a number of fairly serious bad moves, seemingly willingly giving themselves weaknesses without much provocation.

30...f5 screams out for 31. Re6+ followed by gxf5, and the d6 pawn can't be protected either. I don't think ...Rxb2+ Kg3 and pushing the pawn wins for black (since white can get behind the pawn in time and push his own passers), but I guess that must have been what put him off the idea.

Conflagration_Planet: You're the third person in 8 posts to point that out!

Oh. I just looked at the game, not the posts.

lol planet\

my opponent, programmer88, was 2160 something blitz, but this game was a 30 minute game, where he was 2023

gg, CS007, but I couldn't figure out one thing - if the time control was 30/0, and you say that when the game was over, both of you had 25 minutes left on the clock... so, I mean why both of you played so fast? Anyway, nice game. 

I'm not sure why he played fast. A lot of the moves were instinct for me, and I naturally play fast, although thats a bad habit I need to break. thanks for commenting! :)

ok, thanks CS007, got it. 

Thanks for sharing the game; and congratulations. :)s

Nice checkmate!

watch your well feeling,some 1300 rated player will bring u back to earth....
