I as a almost 1600 rated player blundered winning positions in rapid games due to tunnel visioning or not seeing the threat. My kryptonite is "Winning a winning position". How do I practice to overcome the weakness?

So, I am around 300-400 points stronger than one of my frnds on cc, but everytime I play him I dont play at my strength and prolly for the first time, I have a -ve score against him while also being at my best cc rapid rating ever. At the same time, when I play a stronger opponent, I tend to play slightly above my strength. How do I keep mysel in this state for more games?

Hi, I am looking for a training partner to play games with and do puzzles and stuff, who I can try to like break 1000, maybe just 900 with. I am stuck at 650ish, and I often go on tilt.
prefered rating: 600-750
yes, I got inspired by that guy who is trying to break 1500

I often like to play longer time formats such as 15 | 10 or 30 Minute Games however, I always find myself being too impulsive and impatient. I was wondering if there are anyways to stop this and help.

Hello,I am 600 in Rapid and trying to get to 800 by the end of the year at least. I saw others asking for partners and people to play with and get better. So I am trying to do the same. I am looking for people around 600 to play with (in rapid) and NOT higher or lower. Thank You.

Seriously, all the actually good and unique improvement questions are being flooded and buried under mountains of trash and/or stub forum posts. Actual topics should involve something unique or at least relevant to more than just you. This is not a Craigslist listing site. And you are not special. You are not a titled player, you are NN. If you need some quick communications that's what the Notes tab is for. FFS!

I just played this game, and the clock caused me and incredible amount of stress. For a beginner this game was pretty good though.

Can anybody give me tips to break plateau? I’ve been stuck at around 1650-1800 elo for 3 months. I’ve only been playing rapid for a month though, can anybody who has also experienced a plateau tell me what they did to break it. What happens to me is I go on big win streaks but then go on big lose streaks a lot of times

If anyone wants to improve their chess skills, I have created a club were you can have fun and simultaneously improve your chess skills. It has improvement resources, daily Puzzles (updated daily) and weekly lessons. We are searching for one or two diamond membership members to join and help teach them. In future, there will also be an option for members of this club to review 10 games per week even without diamond. If anyone is interested,

around 1900-2300 Elo rapid or 2100-2500 bullet or 2000-2400 blitz I like Queens gambit and Sicilain C5 I have insane memory, will pretty much memorize any line I see and I LOVE puzzle rush.i feel I am under rated right now in all time controls if I can manage to calm down and stop panicking when I'm in game, I'm also 1506 USCF. My main weakness is time pressure.
