My games in a nutshell
Intermediates are actually beginners

I'm extremely ashamed to say this but this is Rapid. I played these right after playing like 20 bullet games in a row so I guess that's why

I watched those games LIVE!!!
Im so sorry. This was the equivalent of buying the pay-per-view of Jake Paul vs Ben Askren

I don’t know what that means!!

did you not see Jake Paul vs Ben Askren??
the whole event was like 4 hours leading up to it, it cost like 75 bucks and the whole fight didn't last a round. thankfully i didnt, not only because i dont have 75 bucks but Im smarter than that

im 1100 during the game where i go to 1200 i proceded to blunder my queen and the game after that missed a checkmate and the game after that i blundered my knight

How do 1500s hang pieces? Am I just under rated or do I actually play that badly?
here's another (edit: I'm black btw)
the difference between 1300 and 1500 is that 1300s do this constantly but they won't always see it. 1500s will always take advantage of blunders like these, but still make them themselves.

you know, sometimes i feel the same way about myself
yeah you blundered to fumble the adoption match for me smh

why u stalking the legendary dababy
i was wondering that. dude was spectating me on a thursday morning when everyone's working and every kid's at school

I'm telling you, I've only missed one hanging piece against a 1300, but I guess I have missed some tactics.

I think what propelled me past 1300 was the ability to see pins that would win me material

almost EVERY SINGLE TIME i make a mistake, i instantly see it after making the move unless it causes a long term weakness or something.
Same.

no cap lesgo
and right before that game
In conclusion, us 1500s are no different from you sub 1000s, we've just memorized more opening names, so don't be anxious about not gaining rating recently or something else like that idk, because in the end, we're all the same type of player until we hit like 1700
I could put so many more examples of both me AND my opponent doing stuff like this. The worst thing was that B1Z spectated both of these games and witnessed both of these blunders. no idea why he chose to spectate these games randomly at like 11:30 but whatever.
This was very incoherent, I have no idea what my thesis is here.
