I lost about 60 elo because I haven’t been in the right chess space while playing, and am back down to 1425. I plan on gaining it all back this weekend though. I think I should only be playing while I’m alone in a quiet space, instead of noisy public places on a small phone. Don’t worry, I’ve still got this.

you haven't been chomping on hanging pieces is why

That is probably the problem. I will just chomp on hanging pieces I guess.

I would recommend playing less games tbh

It’s because I had to watch a bunch of basketball games and got extreamely bored. It was very noisy (they were local teams) and I was playing on a small phone. Definently a poor choice but got me through hours of agony (I had to watch them).

Correct. I did not make my goal.

Here's the problem. You've been hanging pieces and not chomping on them.

For example, you hang a pawn which basically causes you to lose a whole piece.

I realized I had calculated wrong as I played that move yesterday… thanks for the advice and have a great day!

What happened - happened. A new goal is needed. How about 1520 before 2027?

I think I can do that long before 2027

Sure, I tried to suggest a realistic goal

I just won eleven games straight and hit 1500!

Avatar of MrChatty

I have checked and can confirm that the guy is 1500+ currently

Realistic goals do the job

Im in the high 1400s now because I haven’t been in the zone you know?

Just hit 1500 for the third time! (I tilted)

Congrats on 1500, I don't think I said it before
