Hi there guys... In today blog I have to tell you good news! I recently broke 2400 fide standard rating and took my first maiden IM norm (5,5 out of 9, rating performance 2489). This means I improved this year from level of CM to level of IM! I am really happy with it!  But... My rating on chess.com is dropping! I became so slow! Lot of time lack a time to finish the game! But I have to show you 3 games from today play... One vs CM, one vs FM and one vs IM where level show that really matter!

Game vs CM... 2819 blitz CM... Blitzing moves until I improving slowly position! From understanding point he got totally demolished!

Game vs FM... Typical little misunderstanding from him of oppening let my positional knowledge of position to get show! Of course there were few mistakes from me at some points but idea got respected till the end!

Game vs IM... Cold blooded inovation ( g3) make me go to the endgame! Good understanding of endgame from both of us, he had better chance but we agreed on draw.

Additional game vs IM... Nice trick for fast win!
