I want to share with you guys a couple of games that I played in a over the board tournament a few months ago, in these games both of my opponents weren't careful and got into trouble quickly, and it was all because they didn't actually look before they decided to go through with a move.
So without further ado, I present to you game number one!
That was a nice quick win, my opponent played fairly well. But assumed his move was safe and lost very quickly. Don't ever assume that your move is safe, always double-check and be sure that it is safe.
In the same tournment, in the very next round, my opponent did the very same thing! He assumed that his move was safe, without checking to make sure.
So remember, always looks before you leap! Make sure your move is safe, and take plenty of time to do so!
