Health warning: if bad chess moves causes frustration or high blood pressure, do not look at the following games
1st round: we got a bye, breakfast, and ryan lost his phone
2nd round: got paired with a 308 who was actually about 1500. I had potential for an amazing position after 15 moves, but i apparently thought that would be too easy and messed up my advantage, and again later on.
3rd round: it's a little embarrassing i played so badly this game. i don't know for sure what caused me to play like such a patzer
round 4: this round started soon after the previous, and i was still not over thinking about my atrocious play
round 5: i've completely lost my mind, and pairing with somebody i beat everyday didn't help me
conclusion: i played pretty badly this tournament, maybe as a result from sleep deprivation (dubious), the non-existent breaks between rounds (doubtful), my capability to fall apart after game where i play badly (likely), or perhaps i'm just bad (probable). regardless, this won't happen again; i'm going to study my anti-caro-kann, play more long games, and think more about my moves
