My most accurate blitz game

I just played my most accurate blitz game (5 minutes) that was at least 25 moves so far on this site. Yeah, there were some moves of theory, but still a few tactical tricks that I got right in blitz, which I'm happy about.

I've been thinking about playing more chaotically and purposefully trying to complicate the positions I get against lower rated players, and especially after watching Hikaru last night, I think it's impacting both my slow and speed games!

 

Here's another blitz game where I try to use complications and pressure, without nearly as much accuracy, but still I'm very happy with the playing attitude I'm developing...

I've had some ridiculously accurate blitz games against low rated players. Out of 40 moves I'll only have a few that weren't in the engine's top 3 for example. Of course accuracy is a lot easier when they make a lot of mistakes. Anyway, here are two recent ones that come to mind for me. Both 3 minute games.

 

This first one I like because I basically only know 6 moves of theory in this opening. So for example the plan to go with b3, Bb2, f4, was just instinct, so it's fun to see that it was correct afterwards.

 

 

This next one I was fumbling around on some moves in the 20s, but got back on track eventually. Lichess gives it as really accurate, although it doesn't spend long on each move.

True. What I really want is a game where my opponent plays quite well, but nevertheless I play very accurate moves. Pretty much never happens though - and even at the top level GMs make a lot of mistakes in complicated positions, when they go up against each other.

Game 1 is brilliant.  8. ... d5 it is only when I saw 12. ... Nd5 that the penny dropped.
I would have played 7. Bc4 but that is because that is what I do in Accelerated Fianchetto Sicilians due to RJF v Reshevsky 1958.

Game 2. Like 32. e5 ( alert ) Do I take it 34. Qd7 would have gone no where ?

lol thanks, I wouldn't call any of my games "brilliant", but I did play the most accurately against white's move order in game 1, which was imprecise. Bc4 is the correct way to play, and if black tries anything fancy, like Fischer showed, black gets into trouble. 

And 34.Qd7 was the best move. The move I chose, 34.Bd6, only leads to equality, although my opponent did not play the correct defense.
