Live Chess Logs?

Hello there. I would like to know if it would be possible to view logs of past live chess games with my friends. You see, I played a few live games with one of my friends a while back and he beat me (multiple times). I'm about to play him again in a few weeks and wonder if it would be possible to 'borrow' some of his tactics. We only ever played live games and not turn-based.

 

Thank you for your help,

Gabriel.

Yes, all your games on chess.com are stored in the pgn format. Unfortunately, as a basic member, you only get to look at the last 30 days worth.

For example, here is a game you lost about a week ago:

You did great in the first 14 moves of the game and had a won game.

Then you repeatedly sacrificed your pieces for nothing. What was going on?

Here is another game you had completely won and then stopped making sensible moves. Black just played his pawn to d5 attacking your bishop. Why didn't you move it?  You could have even played Bxd5 because black couldn't take back.

But you played Re7. Then when black attacked your rook by moving his knight to a4 (and opening the bishop attack on your rook), you played the bizarre Ne8.  If there was a purpose, I cannot guess it.

It seems like you have no idea what to do next.
