Two games vs a 2000 as a 1300

Game 1: I am White
Game 2: I am black

Some lessons I learned from these:

You have to know the actual lines of the more positional openings like the Grunfeld and such, not knowing and playing against a stronger opponent without it is just a lost cause.

One or two blunders can completely throw the game against higher rated players, as opposed to playing sub-1000s where you could be losing until the 40th move and they'll blunder their queen for no reason

Thanks to the other guy for playing me, it's very rare for a 2000 to even play a 1300 for no reason, let alone twice

I really enjoyed the way that  you activated your king when you played as black. Very cool.

Fun games!

What was the purpose of h4? In the First Game? Isn’t e4 better?
