My first OTB game :)
@chesssdotcomv3sucks I imported in lichess first and analysed there too.
If you still need facts (and if this is important for you), please check my scoresheet picture attached here .
Congrats on winning your first OTB game!
I'm sure next time, you will have this experience of blundering when winning, and now can realise when that might be happening and stop it!

Thanks mate!
I think so, that's why it's good to analyse the games that you won too
Which do you find more stressful and nerve-wracking: OTB chess or Internet Chess?
OTB was much fun for me, playing online feels like playing to my laptop/tablet at different level!
What a crazy game, it was going back and forth. What is your rating and your opponent rating or is it unrated event.

Yea, from winning to losing to winning lol, crazy
I still don't have a rating, but I might be 1000 - 1100 OTB probably, he also didn't have a rating.
The worst blunder in the game was Ra6 and the opponent not taking it although this Rb4 Nc6+ stuff isn't too pretty either.
Always good to win, but I imagine the centipawn loss is pretty high, without having looked at the lichess analysis. What was the time control?

On Ra4, both of my rooks were hanging, so he took the one on b2 ( I remember I shook my head on Ra4), but in general, after c7 blunder, I started to feel pretty bad of how I let the winning game slip away. Only after Rxb4, I started to feel a bit better, btw, I intentionally left the b4 pawn hanging (I like N forks). The time control was 1h:30min.
The most stressful nerve-wracking thing for me would be writing on that strange unaligned scoresheet. :)
ok this might sound really stupid but still- what does OTB stand for?
OTB = Over The Board, when you play on actual board with pieces, not online

And clocks too.

I love to see you higher rated, and study tactics from a book and then internet and Silman's Endgame and Logical Move by Move by Chernev; you will get a solid rating 1600 fide and 1700 fide a year from now. You play pretty solid except for the blunders, I think you have potential; I was very low rated when I first started 1162 uscf and took me three years to get 2019 uscf, if you study the right way you will improve dramatically. Good luck in your next game.
