What I can remember from a game last Friday. The game was a guico pianissimo, and black was caught by a very brutal defense removal tactic, losing a peice.

Blog about my chess club tournament!

Hello readers!

I am in a very small local chess club (about 10), and I decided to join a tournament in the chess club. Unfortunately, I got knocked out in the first round due to my anxiety and time management causing me to play inaccurate moves, causing me to blunder backrank mate. Womp womp (I was actually winning at one point though)

Due to this, I am now an avid spectator, and I have decided to post analysis of some of the tournament games every meet. (I wont be able to get them all, or may only be able to get parts of games. There are no scoresheets, so the only way I can catch the games is to record them with my phone, then analyze them later. Expect maybe two games per post)

I will also post other info of the club, along with the matchups of our tournament and other non tournament games when the tournament is over.

Each post will be on Friday, 8:00 Pm EST, but if any other post-worthy info comes up, I may do a surprise post.

I will not be posting any of the member's chess.com accounts unless they explicitly say they are fine with it. I also probably wont reveal my actual (I dont want anyone who isnt my friend to know both my account username and irl name, but im fine with people knowing one)

Anyways, see you friday! (Probably)
