A game that I am pretty proud of

Not the best game I have ever played... I also blundered a piece but still managed to win with a fancy setupped backrank mate.

I am 640. Could you analyze the game?

Guineaster

Chess.com can. Just hit the analyse button.

I want some real human commens. No engine could tell me the truth. Also, I think this forum has a suitable name for that.

when he castled that was dumb his king is now even more defenseless, you did the right thing to attack it.

I agree that castling was a dumb move

that is completely bs. The computer has a rating higher than the highest rated players, what do you mean that the engine can't tell you the truth.

they actually told me that castling was a misclick (they told me that during the game)

That's fair.

Oof. Rock blunder kindove hurt. But it almost was like beneficial for you, you completely destroyed his king! Well played! I think that, though it led to your win, don't really take knights for bishops, because bishops are slightly better than knights in the endgame. I did use to do this though when I learned the true liability of doubled pawns. Instead of capturing, maybe you could play 4. h3 Bh5. It keeps pressure on the Queen, and if he plays g4 you messed up his pawn structure while keeping a bishop on. Well played other than that. You're underrated.

And if you Bh5 his knight still can't move because it is pinned to the Queen. There goes one defender of that d4 pawn.

the engine can see some 2000+ moves that i would have never seen and it doesn't consider that i am 650 rated, so it considers these moves the best meanwhile i'd never see them so that's kinda not something i'd like to hear, if i would like an analysis of a somewhat game, that is at least my point

Guineaster

Yup.

Guineaster

Tells the truth, but not from a person's perspective.

That isn't always true, plus the engine can be used to understand the mistake too

In my opinion trading this specific way is good because 1. I ruin their pawn structure 2. That happens on the kingside, which makes the king weak in case of 0-0. But thanks for the note! About the 4...Bh5 - I think that's not really good because of g4, which forces me to do 3 moves with the same piece in the opening. Plus it doesn't really hurt the pawn structure after f3, which is a natural development move. Also, I don't really see any pressure on the queen, it's protected with the e-pawn (in terms of the bishop attack), and it can take back if I take the e-pawn. I might be wrong though. Thanks for the long comment!

No problem! Sure, you are moving this piece 3 times after that sequence you said. But what is your opponent doing? Well, he made 2 pawn moves (moving pawns incessantly isn't a good idea), both hurting his kingside. If he castles, those pawns will not give him the protection he needs. He will have to devote pieces to the defense of his king, and none will be on active squares. I know that you did end up winning because of this, but remember :Not every game is a tactical game. Taking opponents seriously is critical. Always expect them to play the best move. If this game converted down to an endgame with minor pieces on and pawns equal, you would be at a disadvantage. Why? Because White has 2 Bishops and 1 Knight, and You have 2 knights and 1 bishop. As you might know, bishops are usually better than knights because they can play on both sides of the board. (Gtg, have to get off this monitor, I'll continue this at home)

a good game for a 600, you were very principled and solid throughout (besides the rook). The best tip i could give you is that in queen pawn positions like that you don't want to play knight c6 or c3 without playing your c pawn out first
