I understand why I lost so many games lately.

No. That alone would.

Test my suggestion. Stop to make blundes... and your rating will fly up to 1800 points. ))

1800 eh. Might be one of the stupidest claims I've ever seen.

How many blunders do you a game on average now ?

korotky_trinity

Look... this man played very well !  He played much stronger than I did.

I was simply proud of his victorious game. But suddenly in the end of the game he did as many blunders as he only could.

And of course he gave up the game where he deserved the victory without any doubts.

Where the victory was in his hands already.

As I've mentioned in other threads, at 950-1050 about half of the opponents blunder. Just not blundering won't get you much past 1100. I don't know what people you have been paired against but even half the 1000s I face don't blunder.

Often when I spend enough time to check every move to avoid any blunders, I still just face an impenetrable wall of defense from the opponent and lose on time, or lose to more advanced strategy.

 

korotky_trinity

HMMM.... well.

Well.. I think that it would be better for you and me to lose the perspective of finding out more advanced strategy... as you wrote... but to stop to make silly shameful blunders that poison our game.

This is the key point of my thread.

Learn to play solid.

As all Chess masters do.

They do. I was 1000 once. Just look for it.

Yes. Of course all they blunder... and this is the main reason of their loses.

korotky_trinity

 

Gosh... The rare event. I made no one blunder in this game !

But maybe did I play wrong in the positional sense ?

Who knows ? )

You do realize you're playing the London system opening, even though you delayed it. This is one of the many very critical things that lie outside of "I didn't blunder." 

I don't even believe you're being serious. No one at 1600 could actually believe "don't blunder" is all that's required.

If you never blunder, you could never lose.

Avoiding blunders is a good start, at least.

It's getting worse. Now we have someone who thinks "blunder" means anything other than best or excellent move. 

Where's my "blunder" here against this 1150. (Why it stuck me against an 1150 is another complaint entirely.) The only one marked is after I've already lost. I just can't imagine you people actually believe what you're saying. Must just be more low-key bragging.

I'm just glad I avoided the idiotic "traxler" garbage because I saw it coming, so just invented something that worked out and did pretty well for me in the early game, pushing his knight back to oblivion and giving me center control and lots of space without any losses. Wasn't enough. Like I said, this was another blunderless wall of opposition that presented no obvious attacks. I just try to defend everything until I finally can't and then I'm dead. And this is still below 1150. 

I'm just glad I didn't throw away any pieces to actual blunders, and slam my fist into my table or door as I often do. I feel I played well. I was just outplayed, by someone 100 points higher.

korotky_trinity

The 36th move. Why did you not take his helpless undefended pawn g2 with your Rook !?

 

This is what I told about... It's obvious that it was your fatal blunder.

korotky_trinity

No, man. You was not outplayed... Don't calm yourself.

You blundered this game as many others alike.

locoturbo

You're nothing but a self-aggrandizing troll, who doesn't even know what "blunder" means in chess.

korotky_trinity

I am not.

I asked you. Why did you not take his pawn g2?
