A Day In My Life On Chess.Com

And a very pleasant day it was too, I hasten to add...

I began the day on a rating of 1709. One loss, one draw, three wins and two hours later, I found myself on a rating of... 1709. I felt like Bill Murray in Groundhog Day.

Then I watched several games in the so-called "Death Match", and thoroughly enjoyed the experience - particularly the running commentaries by Dannie and Ben. I hope I've got their names right. These people are all new to me. Whatever, commentators and players put on a great show between them. Great stuff, Chess.com. Thanks!

Danny's commentaries are the best, he should comment on the world championship.

And another wonderful afternoon's entertainment yesterday. Excellent games, and great commentary by Danny and Lawrence.

That said, really not sure about the value of bullet chess. I enjoyed watching the 5-minute games much more, but each to their own, I suppose.
