This is not so much a game review as it inspires all those who want to improve, such as me. I have gotten better, and mentally, I can hold myself together and win some nice games against higher-rated opponents. This is a good example.
Game Analysis

This is another one. I would like someone to review this if they have the time. It is a great example of how to convert a winning position.

Can someone analyze this game for me. I think I made a lot of mistakes in this game, and common mistakes that an 1150 player is susceptible to make. Game analysis and feedback would be invaluable. I have annotated the game and have also used Lichess analysis here.

I hate weird openings like the queens indian, any thoughts on how to play against it?
Play some games and analyse them. Maybe there are some opening traps and tactics in the Queen's Indian so you could google those. Otherwise if you just play solid opening principles, develop your pieces, castle, look for checks, captures and threats then the better player should win. Also it looks like lately you play mostly blitz and bullet, try playing slower time controls so you can study the positions longer, that way when you play blitz and bullet again, you'll be more familiar with those positions and ready to play against them in quicker time controls.

I have a question on a specific move in this game (I'm playing black):
On move 18 I played e4 and I do not understand why that is a blunder. I looked at the position myself and didn't see what I missed. I figured out other moves myself I just didn't understand that one move.

Your opponent can play 19.Bxg6 and there is a dual threat of checkmate and losing a rook, so you have to defend against mate and you lose the rook.

Anyone want their games to be analyzed? just message me and I'll give my thoughts as a 1680 rated patzer.

This is my game with a brilliant move and an higher than usual accuracy for me. Usually my accuracy is 60%

This one is just a brag Check out this #chess game: Laughnchill vs JoeyD1239 - https://www.chess.com/live/game/129058445203
Hi. This is one of the otb games I have played recently. I am 800 uscf as white against 1700 uscf (although I am a bit under rated) I was wondering if anyone had any additional comments on this game other than what I added?
