Going for a Blitz Rating-Diary

Sort:
Avatar of Tom102

So I've been part of the site for a while now, I've played all time limits from correspondance to bullet but one thing has always been bugging me (apart from my lack of talent in chess), my blitz rating. Maybe it just annoys me because on the live server the rating your friends see is  your bullet one or maybe it is because of me constantly throwing away games with 5 seconds left.

Anyway I want to get good at it, and by good I mean as good as my standard/online rating (which is around 1300). So I've decided to track my progress on this thread, so strap yourselves in and get ready for some fluctuation!

Rules: Only playing Blitz Chess against +-50 rating of myself.

21/10/13-1073-Played 3 or 4 good games today, still awaiting a bad run of form.

23/10/13-1105-Playing strong, had some close games, next step 1200. 

---If you like the idea of the series why not check out the video's I make on YouTube?

Below is a tight game I played today! I offered a draw several times, guess it's good that he declined those.
