When I started I was doing 7-8 blunders in a game of 30 moves, or so. I however reduced them to 2 or 3 blunders but please tell me how I can conpletely stop blundering, I mean 0 blunders. Also I noticed that I blunder more and more in a closed position. I request analyze my games and tell me how I can stop blundering.

Depending on the nature of the game/position, I’ll blunder 1-4 times in any given game, especially if I’m missing tactical ideas. Reducing your mistakes in a game is a great goal, keep it, but don’t get frustrated when you have them in your game(s). Review all mistakes and try to understand why you made them and try to avoid repeating them in the future. happy.png

Blunders are a part of the game of chess and will help make you a better player, the important thing is to not make the same mistakes over and over again.

Here’s some ideas to help you get better.  

-You must consider all checks and captures on your side and also your opponent’s side. Always as, “If I move here, where is my opponent going to move?”. Do this for every single move!  

-Play with a slow time control, such as G/30 so you have plenty of time to think before every move. If you play with a short time control, you are prone of making silly mistakes due to the reduced time control.  

-You goal is to NEVER make any silly mistakes in your games. 

    I hope that this helps.

Even grandmasters blunder. You cannot fully eradicate blunders. 

You can reduce them by blunder checks, counting attackers and defenders, etc.

First step is just not blundering a full peice in 1 move. ( moving a peice to an undefendes square free for the taking ) next is type 2 undefended peices, losing a peice due to a tactical sequence ( pins, skewers etc ) these are the kinds that most intermediets fall into. Solving puzzles helps see these ideas for yourself an see them from your opponent. When you start getting some games with 0 blunders 1 mistake and 2 innacuracies...your on the right path.

If you try hard not to blunder, you'll only blunder even more. They're inevitable, no matter how much experience you have or how many lessons you've taken. Really, you have a choice. Accept them and stop caring, or use a machine. Props for your Mr Crow pfp, though.
