Again... I always open with d4. I just need to learn more lines flowing from it! Any tips what I could of done differently? I know I made some blunders Mid game on... but I wasn't sure how to respond on move 5 or so... after that? I started losing ground! Than I got desperate making blunders after another!
Hello everyone. I'm new to group! I joined because you guys are huge! I have a few other groups not even 1000+ and I play a lot! When I'm done, I like to share my games to self analyse and get comments or constructive criticism from fellow players. Recently, I have not gotten any attn to games I've shared on! I can't seem to grow and learn more if others don't comment on my threads! Further, the groups I'm in seem to basically die out when it comes to playing in matches. I'd like to be more active with atleast one group, and so here I am! You guys are large enough, I should be able to post some threads sharing recent games to get some comments on those, and any future games I play I hope to do the same. Further, I will be jumping on some of your club matches in my range!

I don't think my Opponent had any knowledge how to handle the line after 3rd or forth move! I saw him making minor errors along the way! Neither did I infact, I was just trying to stay ahead with tactics. This Scandi still new to me. Than I blundered! If he noticed, took advantage, he would of had me at a major setback... his blunder was not taking the opportunity, few times repeatedly! Check it out... I'll explain! That is the original, unedited game for all to view. Any analyzing will be done below, on a new board. He resigned after my last move. Discovery check threatening Queen!

Blitz round 2 with previous opponent! I thought I'd have better chance! Didn't do any better! Lost 3x Blitz in row? Not happy with my performances today! Any ideas? Thanks!

I like d5 for Black opening! I still have A lot to learn about the Scandinavian! Or, whatever else the line names are called. So far, with black, I open d5 to all white's first moves! I just need to learn all the variations to it! This game here? Definitely went in my favor! Once he opened his Defense, he allowed a reverse B/Q attack in the end, which gave me a guarantee victory! As a daily game, we are now in a rematch, in our round 2.

This line of d4 I was unsure about! I've seen Nf6 once or twice, and always responded with Nf3. In this line, I don't know if 3.c4 was my best move! I did my best with tactics, he had the best of me! I fought hard though! Any one wish to review, and give me some criticism? Thanks.
