Playing Chess Everyday Until I Hit 2000 Elo : Day 213 

I understand that feeling Apex. There are many times in which you perhaps lose a couple in a row, and you decide to stop playing for the day so as to avoid keep losing ELO and your temper. But at the same time, there's a voice inside you telling you to play just one more to see if you win and end the day feeling better. Problem is that that's one heck of a double-edged sword.

19:50, blundering is a mistake here 😂 you kept your composure well after that first game, I would have head butted my phone 😂

Tough ones, especially that first one. I know the feeling of having a crushing position and then blundering mate.

I was 1600 playing the caro kann and also got frustrated aswell, but then one day, I thought, why not study some scilian theory, and I did for some time, and got more elo with a 71% win rate with najdorf scilian. I use to think I have to be a grandmaster to play the scilian defense, but i just started studying theory and won my games.

"That one hurts the soul" - well put. You played very well overall. It's tough when you get tired.

Hang in there you’re gonna make it. Btw I keep telling myself to stop playing for the night when I get tilted but I keep not listening 😂

Brooo, that first game😢😂- epic content

Calculate well before moving,at 23:21 you had a chance to win a pawn or maybe two by taking the pawn on C3 after which you are also protecting your knight and also threatening to take another pawn with your bishop and attacking the undefended knight.

You know what's crazy? (Very weird but hear me out, or not, its crazy to me) For months while watching this series I've had this recurring mental image of you hitting your desk after throwing or blundering, and every time i would think "why do i keep seeing this image? He's never done that." 🤔 Well holy shit it happened (Tbh I think it's simply that your setup or appearance ressembles a famous clip of a streamer hitting their desk but still, insane that it actually "came true" lol)

In your corner amigo. Chess is brutal. Onward to 2000!

something that is super beneficial for me, but also extremly hard to pull off is to disregard elo and just play as much as possible. Ive noticed that i improve much faster when i dont care about elo. In the start its often slow and i loose alot but then i finnaly get higher

I got to 2000 elo over the board in about 18 months Get chess puzzles Pheska is best and do them BUT do the same puzzles over and over, the theory is if you can`t solve a puzzle you did yesterday then its not in your subconscious, eventually you will be solving these puzzles in about a second and you can do hundreds in a hour, as this happens your tactics will improve enormously.

19:45 it usually is 😁

Bro I love it when you get angry xD

Have you ever heard of the Lucena Position?

The difference at 34:25 is that you would've been behind the pawn

Ohhh u better play that damn chess every F'n day son!!!!

Very nice mate.

Feel for you. But you are holding your own better I think.

🤣 ah man sorry you played well

I mean if you lose two plus games in a row that means youll probably win 2 plus games in a row soon right?

Take heart, you are probably just going through some things. Before you know it, you will get into a roll.

Why you don't play 10mins?

first view

U could've won a knight or a rook... u didn't realize that coz u only analyze blunders and misses and not mistakes and inaccuracies... on 24:15 u had Bb2
