Never Play Chess When You're Tired (Unless You Want to Tilt)

I decided it was a wise idea to play a game of chess while I was really hungry and tired. I don't really know why, but I felt like it, so I started one. And I blundered twice in the endgame and lost while having a HUGE positional advantage.

Damn :( nice game before though. The bishop blunder and then the king not blocking the pawn... It has happened to me a couple of times, when playing late at night ;)

yeah... I probably shouldn't have expected to win while tired, but that's okay lol

Its good to play when tired, draws you out. But yes not bishop takes but get those pawns first then Bc3. Also move 23 take the bishop and your winning with Ba4 Rc2. Nice game.

It's quite ironic that I ordered  for Silman's Complete Endgame Course the same day I did this

once i just decided it would be a fantastic idea to play some 3min games when my eyes were completely tired and I was tired, then I got mad when I went down 100 points

Thankfully I got a good night's sleep from crying to myself, and the next day I went up 50 points, but I'm still struggling to get back up any further than that
