What does this have to do with the topic of this thread? Can't you make your own thread?

I tried to search for it and am not sure what you're talking about.

This thread is for game analysis, please!

I take it that the game I submitted (in post #15 of this thread) is a bit too up-scale for what you had in mind?

 

That Knight sac was a solid move!  I would have never tried that.  I wouldn't have even considered that his Knight move would kill the bishop after Qe7.  I guess it goes to show I don't often look at my opponent's resources and just try out my own ideas without considering my opponents.  Most of the time in daily I just make moves and don't use the analysis board. LOL.  That is part of my problem.

I guess I should have posted a game with longer time control.  Oh well, maybe you can show me something about my play even so.

Do you also analyse 960 games? Do you analyse standard games played against computer?

I would prefer to analyze standard, long-time-control games against humans, but I mean I'd at least take a look!

Really impressed with your videos.  Yes the first was small, but enjoyed your analysis anyway.  I like how you show some positions can be saved and your honesty in analysis.  The advice you give is very good for players from Expert down.  Only saw five videos but plan to look at all of them, because I like the way, including the tone, you explain your analysis.  Hearing the thoughts of the players really tunes me in to why they played their moves. Thanks.

@BlakeyBChess : I watched all the videos posted on your website, and I enjoyed them. But I notice that you haven't done any more analysis videos since June. Do you plan to do more?

I have a suggestion/criticism: For the "Blitz battles" videos, it would help immensely in educative value if you played with incremental time controls, so that all the games don't simply end up being a time scramble. You would be able to communicate your thoughts more. 3+2 or better still, 5+5 would be ideal. This is of course, assuming that you intend those videos to be instructive to lower rated players, and not simply for entertainment purposes.

I hope you do more of the game analysis series. They can be quite beneficial for beginners and intermediates. You'd be surprised how much little things that strong players take for granted can improve a weak player's game. For instance, in one of the videos you explained that exchanging two minor pieces for a rook and a pawn is generally not a good trade. I only realized that quite recently, and since then I have stopped doing that - and learnt to punish opponents who do that against me.
