"Accuracy" in game review?

Sort:
JBarryChess

Yesterday I played a rapid game with someone, a good game that went to the end game. In doing the review, one of the inaccuracies reported was that I missed a fork, but I didn't do the move because the other player could have simply done an exchange with an equal piece to (knight/bishop) end the so called forking attack. This isn't the only time that I noticed odd little things like this. Anyone else or is this why I'm only a 1,000 rapid player, lol.

An inaccuracy is one that drop the move evaluation by a certain amount. That doesn't mean your move was bad and the overall evaluation of the game could still be in your favor.

Without seeing the specific game and move, it's hard to say why the suggested line was better.
