Im Quite a low rated player so think I missed a lot of tactical motifs and strategies I could of used. Please give some advice. 10 minute time control, im black, he ran out of time

@chillbro123 when your opponent plays weird like that there’s no reason to go defensive on move like 10... you should have struck back sooner.

He actually wasn't playing that badly.

I don't know if I can post more than once, but I need advice on defending against an attack. Like what are some good principles, besides keeping a clear head? 

In the following game, I don't panic, but still blunder the advantage, and suffer an attack that could have been reversed several times. The time control is 10|5, team match.

Here is an interesting 3|0 game in the dragon that I played:

Sorry for the late post, but this game just ended today. It was a Daily Chess game with 3 days to make a move. This was the sixth time I have played against this opponent, and I won three and drew two of the previous games. So I began the game thinking I had a realistic chance of winning, which is unusual for me. I failed to take advantage of a lead in development and then failed to capitalize on the position of my opponent's king, stuck in the center. Then I lost a pawn but fought back for a draw in the endgame, despite still being a pawn down. I know my annotations are lousy, so I am trying to step them up. I have not done the computer analysis of this game.

I just noticed a typo in my annotations. For move 33, I meant g4+, not e4+. I can't even annotate without making mistakes.

As usual, thanks for looking at these games, Jesse! This was part of a Lone Wolf series (8-player round robins) played online, 90 + 30.

Hi Jesse,
 
 This is a game from one of the last OTB tournaments I played this year. This draw against a higher rated opponent (from a completely lost position) and my wins in the other games got me back to the mid 1900s from the 1800s and hopefully once OTB tournaments come back, I can continue making gains). Time control: 90/40 SD30 30s increment from move 1. This was my first ever serious attempt at playing the King's Indian OTB.
