After losing a game from a winning position recently due to time trouble (10m)

https://www.chess.com/forum/view/game-showcase/how-to-throw-a-game

I have decided to play 15|10s (first i thought i should play blitz and bullet to sharpen up my time management skills but then i have decided to take more time.. why not)

and just played a 15m game with 10s increment.. result is shocking.

  • My accuracy went up to 91.8%
  • My overall score went up to 2150
  • My all 3 stages are marked as Great (Blue exclamation mark)
  • No mistake, miss or blunder

I never expected that much of an improvement. I don't know if should call it 'improvement' though, it's more like 'revealing true potential' maybe?

to Anyone struggling with the feeling like being underrated, I suggest you all to play longer time controls. Cheers.
