losing games to my own bad play

I'm certain many others will as well. No, why, I'm telling bro to stop spamming. and bro, I said to you to send the challenge.

If I'm the troll... Who disliked these?

Also, why are you obsessing over it, I said sorry.

wed morning feeling good today - things are going ok for now this morning -- added another game to the stack to play ---one more game went over 30 moves so couple of blood work appointments to go to and one scans this morning so full morning sitting and waiting good time to bring my tablet and play chess against bots see you this afternoon

THURSDAY MORNING -- very much ice and slippery conditions out side and i have to de ice the door well - did that and then played ten moves on ten games 24 hour types-- seems today every move i made was a just get out of danger move -- all ten moves where not any advancement of my pieces---- all in the 12- 20 moves range of the games --- i would image i am going to lose a couple today maybe -- before i get to 30 moves -- pretty sad somedays iam useless at playing

THURSDAY NIGHT going to lose a couple of games before 30 moves tonight due to knights forking down to get my castle or queen - i fall for this move quite a few times lately - can't seem to stop them when i see it coming ---- better get two new games started i guess

friday morning spent more time in the forums reading than playing chess did play 10 moves over ten games on the 24 hr ones -- position started to get better in some but as usual i got penned in in a couple of others so they look bad -- none went over 30 moves yet today --- maybe later

just roll with the punches and keep your eye fixed to your goal.

thanks

bro the people are 500.

They are not good, it's just your skill. That doesn't make them good.

You missed a free bishop, and earlier you missed a pawn, they are not good, you are not able to take advantage of their mistakes. I once beat 2 1700s, and was beating a 2100 but lost on time, you can do wonders if you take your time.

Agreed. I'm certain you (lostatchess) have the skill to beat your opponents. You just need to train yourself to watch out for those patterns like the knight fork! (And don't say you can't learn it - give yourself time. Impatience is the enemy of progress.)

i like that phrase "impatience is the enemy of progress"--- iam an old dog well a very old sick dog and sometimes impatience gets the better of me usually through despair you know the saying "old dog new tricks" -- wanting to win and being able to win are vastly two different beasts - as i go on my journey with these 24 hours games i see more than i did before -- not enough to win but at least enough to see that with my goal of 30 moves it does make me a little less impatient---- at least that my thought--- maybe when i get every game over 30 moves i can go on to do another piece of the puzzle of why i don't see what you better players see-- hope so

trying a new opening on the next couple of games using those nasty knights that others cream me with and restricting the use of my pawns as i have read and been told to do

its friday and my meds won't kick in for a couple of hours so i will play a few games tonight

A struggle with impatience, self-doubt, perfectionism, and frustration but with resilience and a desire to improve. 

well said --- now just getting to believe it and implement it that's is the true trick

just a small note --- went for 495 to 527 last two days -- maybe a 1 % increase in ranting valve ---ho weeeee

i don’t even have a rating, yet in my only national championship, i finished in the top 12 in my country.

and your boasting point is ????????

just joking man, but i was below the minimum rating for eligibility, got in because i had made the long journey.
