Nice game guys... cheers from croatia
The most interesting game of chess was played here in chess.com !! 💥

Marco is not a bad player, just be careful when you play. He played 'A boring ECO' and carefully played me, we got to a completely drawn endgame (I won anyways). The only reason he is <1000 is because he does not always play that strong, maybe it will be more consistant soon

Thank you Logozar. I am improving and one of the reasons are your advices.
I am sure when you become a FM or IM you will be a great chess teacher.

Yes, of course. Right now I was talking to Magnus because he insisted to talk to me to get some tips for an agressive game. Now I am available. Just send me the challenge.

Sorry, it was not elegant chess. it looks like the stuff I played as a beginner, where I made a lot of pawn moves with no plan. I've played against people who find openings "boring" and don't want to learn any, and they end up playing stuff like this.

Beautiful games. I really like the fact that you are the 'king of the patzers".
YES !!!!!! Thanks fan !!! MAgnus said the same as you !!!!
Two trophies sent to you !!

Warbringer, you do reliaze that marco is posting blitz games, right?
No, I actually didn't. Why would he do such a silly, pointless thing?
One would think he would improve more by studying and playing classical games. /shrug. Maybe getting good at the game isn't his priority.

I just can't comprehend how someone can be rated 800-900 in classical chess.
No, it is in blitz and only in chess.com. And I have posting in this thread only blitz 5 minutes games, except that one against Petrike (that one was 3 days move).
I sometimes play in CHESS24 . COM and there my rating in blitz 5 0 is pretty better. I do not know why, but I think the users in chess.com are a bit better:

Your rating is high there because they have a starting rating of 1800 rather than 1200, which 1200 is the norm. Therefore you are overrated 600 points, which could convert to about 829 on that site, which would actually be lower than here.

Interesting. Tks for the explanation. Two more trophies sent to you !!
However, my statistics in chess24 .com is much better than here in chess.com. I think the players here are more chess addicts than over there.
