Current goals are beating the 2000 bots and getting to 3000 on puzzles, it may take a while 😬🤣. Progress though

Yea I'm also trying to work my way through all the bots. I've done them all up to Sakura, stuck on her now. Seems unbeatable but then Noam seemed unbeatable too for a while

Your further along the path than I am, fair play 👍🙂. My aims to get off this rating rollercoaster till I feel I can push up confidently....

Avatar of AnxiousPetrosianFan

Yea my idea is similar. Next few months I plan on mainly just playing bots and playing through Petrosian's games

I gave her a go, a bit above my pay grade and turns out a fair few blunders 😬😁 studying the greats is on my list, so much to learn👍😁

Think I could have got a draw at the end, in hindsight we would all be great I guess 🤓

Avatar of AnxiousPetrosianFan

Yea that looked like a good attempt. She's tough

Final 1700 bot beat, one step closer to training against the 2000 bots. 👍

First 1800 beat 👍

I like to play Natasha-bot (2000) occasionally: she is perhaps easier among the 2000-rated bots. That endgame draw in the game against Sakura is a tricky one, in my opinion.

Avatar of blackrookcafe

Yeah, I was pretty worn out at that point in the game🙂. I feel I'm punching above my weight a little with these rated bots but I guess that's a good thing. So far haven't hit a wall, been beaten by wally twice so far, down to pawn positions in both games so I guess I'm getting the door opened to positional play. Much to learn

Avatar of blackrookcafe

That's wally beat, onwards and upwards. Took me 4 attempts to be fair 

Avatar of blackrookcafe

Helped by his knight move if course but I'm taking the win 😁

Avatar of AnxiousPetrosianFan

4 attempts on Wally is great... Took me a lot more than that. Wally is tricky for a lot of people I think

Thanks, Julia next, so far not so good😬

Avatar of blackrookcafe

That's Julia beat, not entirely sure why she handed the win to me but once again, I'll take it and push on 😁

Avatar of blackrookcafe

Was a dirty game with little in solid play, I felt like I was on the back foot a lot of it..... Could be worse, could play bad and lose I guess 😁

So Miguel has destroyed me to the point I've ended up blitzing games against him, all losing and getting more frustrated. Thought I'd try a different bot, plenty of blunders but somehow managed to win against Natasha (2000) the adaptive boy first time. Miguel seems a different class, making me look bad is an understatement ..... Still, I'll take the win and march on.
