Simple Analysis of a User's Game — Game #3

Hello everyone, my name is Jonathan, and I'm rated 2098 in Chess.com Rapid. Today I'm going to publish my annotations on a game a user wanted me to analyze.

Note: when trying to create this diagram, it would not always save my arrows and highlighted pieces. If you want to see the moves with all the arrows and highlighted pieces, go to my Lichess blog, which is here: Or you can go to my study, which I'll link at the bottom of this blog.

There are 2 main takeaways from this game:

1. You need to practice 1 half-move hanging piece tactics. (1 move means that White has made a move and Black has made a move. A half-move means that either White made a move or Black made a move.)

Here's an example of what I'm talking about. Copy the following FEN, go to chess.com/analysis or lichess.org/analysis, and paste it. Then try solving it. (It's White to move and win.)

r5k1/1pp2ppp/1nnp4/3bp1B1/4P3/1N3PPq/1PPQN2P/1R3RK1 w - - 0 1

(I can't figure out how to make the puzzle solveable on here. That's why I pasted the FEN.)

2. Practice visualizing.

This is what a simple analysis can look like. If you would like deeper analysis, I offer coaching. Check out my Chess.com profile description for more details. (Note: if you're using your phone, you may not be able to see the description inside the Chess.com app. Because of this, you'll need to type in something such as this on the web (take out the quotation marks, of course): "pawntoking37 chess.com". When you click on my profile, make sure it doesn't transfer you over to the chess.com app.)
