I just had another win against an opponent 500 points above me. I really hope this is a breakthrough for me with my chess. I have been playing so diligently and really working hard on cutting down my mental miscues.
500 point ratins bump OVERCOME
Sort:
Haha the first game looks awfully familiar. Good job on both games.
Why not "15... Nxb4"?
EDIT: in the second game I mean.

Not sure what you mean. There isn't a piece on b4.
15. Qb5+? NxQ
Sorry Nxb5.

Heh, the second game was rather poor on both ends but the first game was great as far as I can tell.

In your first game, 19. Qxd5 is a good option because his bishop is pinned.

YEah I totally missed that first time around.

Aside from timeouts, this is the greatest win I've had at chess.com so far. The opening was predetermined Fried Liver attack.
I welcome comments here. I think I played the game very well.
