I could use some thoughts on this game, please. The game got squirrely on me but I pulled it off even though I missed checkmate TWICE right in front of my face! I feel like I'm beginning to learn this game and then I do stuff like this!! YIKES! Anyway, I'm white.

The entire game was great though 21. bg5 was a bit of an inaccuracy because after nxd5, bxe7, nxe7 you just lost 3 material. The game was still completely winning anyway but its important to never let your guard down no matter what. On move 28 and 30 you missed qf7#. When your opponent's king is that exposed always make sure to look for real checkmate possibilities rather than checks. Overall though it was a great game!

This game had one of the highest accuracy scores I've ever had, so thats cool! There was some interesting things in the game review though. For some reason 4. g6 gave white a +0.45 ish advantage. My brain cant quite understand that. Also was an inaccuracy to trade on c3 with the bishop, but I don't understand how e5 is good. It creates a weakness, but I could be missing something. If anyone has any insights it would be good. I was black here.

Honestly the game was near perfect so I have nothing to say other than great game!

I don't even know how I managed to win this one, I literally won only cause I pre moved my pieces with less than a second.

The opening was weird. Honestly I don't know why you played c6 on move 2 instead on 1 if you were going to transpose into the Caro-kann but whatever. 5. be6 was a bad because the bishop sat very awkwardly there and you missed dxe4. Always look for counter-threats and calculate whether they work or not. 7. nh5 trapped your own knight with g4. Now this whole situation with your knight being in trouble went on for a while but luckily your opponent missed it. 23. bxd4 was a crude blunder because of the sequence that followed and then 25. nf3 but your opponent missed this as well. Always make sure to calculate a couple moves ahead especially in crucial situation like those. 29. rc4 blundered nd6 which was a huge threat(forks, hanging rook, etc). Before making a move you need to make sure you can nullify any opponent threats. 33. qe2 missed qxc2#. This sort of misses/blunders can be prevented simply by double-checking the board and making sure you aren't missing any 1 move ideas. Overall the game was very full of mistakes but every beginner goes through this. Over time if you follow these rules you'll easily get much better.

You started the game off alright but then came 9. bxb5 which simply didn't accomplish anything. These sort of 1 move blunders are a lack of focus not skill. Just make sure to pay attention to the board before every move. The same goes for 12. d4, 20. nd6+(a miss), 23. re1(missed mate in 1). Trust me when I tell you that anybody can easily get to 500 elo as long as they just diminish these 1 move mistakes.

I am working as a night porter, and am alone in 4 storey building, playing chess. Strong wind here, and windgust pushed the door of the warehuse and that confused me and in a wininng position I blundered in 35th move.

The opening was fine. 14. nd5 was better than 14. nb5 as it gained a tempo and out-posted the knight on a strong square. 14. nb5 also allowed bh6 which pinned the knight and after h4 and then f6 you would lose the knight. 16. nxc7 not only blundered the queen and knight but it also missed qxh6(a free bishop). These sort of one move blunders and misses are caused by a lack of focus not skill. Simply just double-check the board before every move to make sure nothing is hanging. Eventually you took both his queen and rook and won the game but you cannot rely on your opponent blundering to win. You need to fix your own to become better.

I used to work nights in mainframe (basement of state building) and it can be freaky. I had my dog (attack trained) with me or I doubt I could have handled it; I would surely blunder too!

So a great Indian Game but the crazy thing is, I didn't need to sac the Queen but the complications for the second player paid off with a key fork in time trouble securing the win. The mate sequence was really nice. Aside from the Stockfish assessment, can you guys see anything that could have gone better? Any feedback is appreciated.

My best game so far. Just getting back into the grind, I'm only 300 elo right now but I am definitely capable of more. This is only a coach game so not much to brag about but I am proud of myself nonetheless

Pretty damn good honestly. Better than I play half the time. Im busy playing like 11 games and winning 4. Great stuff.
