Your Standard rating is separate from your Blitz rating.

This game http://www.chess.com/livechess/game.html?id=22490139 was played as a Blitz Rating.

This game http://www.chess.com/livechess/game.html?id=22486724 was played with the Standard Rating.

You have 3 different rating types. The difference between the time controls and ratings are correct.

In live chess, u have three ratings. Make sure it wasn't a different rating.

You have standard, blitz, and bullet.

hey mate, this was due to you being new to chess.com. The rating system works on the number of games that you have completed. If you have played a few games then your rating change will be really great but after a few games it should stablilize. :) Lol also if the time control was less then 2 minutes that is a different rating to the one you have if the game was between 3 to 14 minutes, and if it was over 15 minutes then it is also a different time control as well. I think its because you played to different time controls. :)

yes it is so

may have played different time controls.

ratings drop or rise fast during your first twenty games.  I have studied how the Elo formula worked, but chess.com uses other rating system, yet the idea is almost the same.
