Lately I’ve lost to some players that are rated in the 600 area and I’m a solid 800 (24 hour matches) Do I just suck or perhaps I’m tricked by different move styles? Anyone else having this happen? My confidence and attitude are shot to heck. Thanks for listening to my whine, I offer you some virtual cheese to go with it.

Sometimes we win, sometimes we lose, it is normal. Btw, the best way to improve your chess skills is to play with opponents who are stronger than you. 

If I played with guys whose rating is smaller than mine, I would never get my results.
