Hi,
Anyone rated 1800-2300 blitz up for some sparring matches? Playing a variety of different openings then analysing afterwards?
I'm 2100 blitz at my peak, probably more like a 2000 blitz player on average. +/- 200 pts would be great.
Following openings I play:
White
Ruy Lopez Exchange
French Nc3 line
Caro Kann 2 Knights
Against Petrov, I play 3.Nxe5 and have dabbled in both 3...d6 4.nf3 and 3...d6 4.Nxf7
Against Najdorf, I play bg5 line
Against Dragon, I play the Levenfish
Against the Nc6 e5 line, I play Nb5.
Against any other generic Sicillian/Dragon that doesnt allow Levenfish, I'm still undecided between Maroczy Bind or nc3 - I play both interchangably.
For black,
I play the Stafford Gambit, 4 Knights, or some variation of against 1.e4
Against 1.d4 I play the Englund - I know it's dubious if not, even a forced loss, but I still get reasonable success in blitz with it. I would like to train in either Grunfeld or Semi-Slav though.
Open to playing whatever against you in return.
Analysing over a skype/zoom call is also on the cards, but happy to just play and communicate via text as well.
