Hi! I hope you are having a wonderful day! Anyhoo... I wanted to know about a certain condition that you can have. i recently been trying to reach a 1110 goal for chess, i am a 870 rated player. and i eventually got there. 1010. I only lost three matches that day. The next day, i get up to finish what i started. Maybe at 3 P.M eastern time. and i have lost every game i worked for. All of it, Down the drain. I took a break a little less than a week. And still nothing. I dunno what it is, i have not a idea of what it is caused from. I need a hand. Thanks!
i have no idea which games you are talking about since you didn't specify, but if it's blitz or bulllet then it's not a big deal. for me you shouldn't even be playing too many of this time control if you are really trying to improve but what do i know. if it's rapid then at least you can try to analyze it with someone else stronger who can point out your mistakes but also what he/she would've done so you can learn from it. if it's daily chess i have no idea as i don't play that.

Im sorry i did not specify. Blitz games. 3 minutes. Thanks for the tip!
i lost more than 5 games in a row in blitz a lot of times now. blitz is about your tactics and intuition. both cannot be acquired by playing more blitz. you get better at tactics by solving tactics puzzles consistently and progressively with a high success rate. you get better intuition by playing long games and analysing and looking at master games, among other things. also i think you need to warm up your brain by doing puzzles before actually playing blitz (this is assuming you already have a fair amount of intuition and tactical prowess). but if you just want to play and have fun then you can disregard everything i said and just play as you like.

I agree with the preceding writers. With these short running games everything can happen. You have a bad hair day, you loose every single game. You are fit in the morning with a good day in front of you, you win all the time. It does say very little about your general abilities in chess. So play longer games with more time to think, do taktiks and lessons and videos.
