Bad Losing Streak

Sort:
Thechessplayer202020

I'm in a 4 game losing streak and I need help, tips, advice, or whatever. I feel that it's largely due to blunders and not being able to execute a plan properly. I also have a bad opening.

Facts. I had to lose eight games in a row until I won one.

Four games isn't a streak.

It's just a dot.

Sometimes when you win, you really lose, and sometimes when you lose, you really win, and sometimes when you win or lose, you actually tie, and sometimes when you tie, you actually win or lose. Winning or losing is all one organic globule, from which one extracts what one needs.

Sounds like you've lost it.

I used to watch him, but at 1500, he doesn't seem to help anymore...

I use to read the articles and I watched a few vids, but the one problem with chessmood is that I'm not too sure that it will benifit me. No offence , but 1500 rapid elo is not the same as 500.

I feel that my two main weaknesses are my opening and blunders, I'm wondering if chessmood can help, what do yall think?
