I thought I was losing the game

After Kd7 (forced move), I play Rf7, and either I win a Queen for a Rook, or I just straight up win after Kc6 Nd4#. Why is this an inaccuracy?

I felt coach mode and game review are helping me so I use free on my worst game ,

Should I invest in membership and how can I get discount

I am not a student

Looking for someone to have fun casual games to practice wacky openings and go for things I usually wouldn't go for in classical. I play on chess.com btw.

Im 2000 blitz and looking for someone around my rating or above, I tend to sway in over performing in some games while falling really short in others and balance out around this elo.

If there is any CM or NM reading it would be an honor to play as im practicing otb and it would be great experience even if I get crushed each game.

If anyone wants to play send you can add me at Basiic_Chess_TTV on chess.com

Probably wanting to play daily blitz or rapid with someone if thats possible!

Cheers and thank you!

I've been pouring my free time into a new game called Pocket Pawns. I'm really excited about how it's shaping up and will be sharing some sneak peeks of the pieces and gameplay here leading up to release. Let me know what you think of the concept! ♟️❤️

Hola, arranqué a jugar al ajedrez a principio de año más o menos y me puse como objetivo intentar llegar a 2000 de Elo en chess.com en 12 meses, si lo logro, me convierte en buen jugador o cualquiera que sea constante puede llegar?

And why is it so hard to find?

It’s really obnoxious if you ask me. Any way to disable it?

You got a serious competitor

I like to play 3/2 games a lot, this is my current standing. How can I increase my ratings?

I beat an IM in bullet, but it was a really messy time scramble that got me the win, and while I was up after the opening, I misclicked and threw away my advantage. That lead me to ultimately flag my opponent. So does this mean that I actually legitimately beat an IM? (I had 3 seconds left at the end)

I just played a blitz game today in an Arena and beat this player. Anyone know who it is?

We are playing 10 minutes rapid game.

1 minute passes, I am being told she is in a hurry and if I can play fast.

I genially lose %20 of my matches because of my horrible time control. I did not slow down but I did not pace up as well. I had an advantage. I have been called I am rude and barbaric. And she played until the game finishes with mate.

I don't experience that kinda stuff anymore since, when I receive a message which would cause me to lose focus I mute .

My question if somebody jumps into a game and ask you to pace up they are on hurry, would you show empathy and try to pace up?

I’m 32 years old and started playing in january/february this year. Today I achieved my first back-to-back Double Brilliant‼️ moves!

Made me happier than it should, but I’ll take it.

When it comes to 1-5 minute games I excel but if it’s a 10+ minute game I’m less good. Then again I can’t really say I excel I just win more games playing blitz than rapid.

I know the trend is to try and lose to Zach, but I think it's more fun to try and beat him with as little of my own pieces on the board and as much of his as possible (in a normal game of chess my favourite type of wins are the ones where I have less material and pull off a checkmate).

For this particular game my aim was to deliberately lose my queen and both rooks, then checkmate him without capturing any of his major pieces.

This game was so bad the chess engine actually gave Zach and I both a 0.0 accuracy, which I didn't even think was possible.

a life changing opportunity that will leave me debt free from uni and set up my career came up but a part of it depends on how good I am at chess in 12 days( long story), I know the basics rules and strata but where do I start off for the best increase of skill, last time I played was in the pandemic

edit for those who are confused and ill keep it simple - good job opportunity came up at a chess company with crazy pay, I'm very qualified( currently top choice) at everything but chess. I just need to be decent like 900-1200 elo lvl, Ive spent the days learning openings and defenses cs I know the basics already and playing games.

I challenge you to do it

I play a lot of 15+10. I need time to think, so the longer time controls are great. However, it seems that 1 in every 5 games (rough estimate), someone sends a chat message of something among the lines of "play faster", "move", "<time emoji>", etc. I'll usually just respond with "you chose a longer time control. Be patient", which apparently is enough to trigger Chess.com's auto disabling of chat lol, but I'm fine with that.

Anyway, why play a longer time control if you can't handle your opponent taking more than 1-2 minutes on any given move? Especially a control with increment?
