I’m looking for someone higher than me to play with. Thanks in advance.

Greetings. I checked your rapid games your offense is well-coordinated. I saw hanging pieces though. Anyway, it's good you're the complete opposite of me. I'm very defensive and you're overly aggressive.

Really you think so? I’ve always thought of myself as a balanced player. As for the hanging pieces, I’ve been a little stressed this week so I don’t normally leave as many. If you check my games this week I lost 7 in a row which is like the worst I’ve ever done in a while. Thanks for the feedback.

Hi,

I’d be happy to play unrated games with you, we can analyze them afterwards if you’d like. Message me and we’ll work out a time to play!

That's a lot of loss points. It's just that your knight was on standby out in the open together with your bishop and then it suddenly got sniped by the enemy rook. A knight and a bishop is good for coordinated attacks, but they suck at coordinated defence since they move differently. Then, you left your bishop for dead after a failed mate threat which could have been saved if you retreated. That's all, I think.

I have a problem where I get frustrated….and losing 2 or more games in a row just makes me play worse. I know I could have won a lot of those games, especially the one against a 1150 rated player, but at that point I was just moving randomly and not even trying. My head was hurting, and I came back the next day determined to play better, and I did.

I see. If you're not feeling well just don't play. Solve puzzles instead although it might hurt your head more by thinking, at least you won't lose points.

I agree. Thanks.
