i'm currently 1160, i dropped from 1260. my friend is currently 1500, he learnt chess last year but i've played it for 9 years 🥲 i think your videos will help me get better. congrats on 1700!

Great progress, also psychologically. Trying to stay active, don't blunder, and just go with the flow, play with some confidence and don't be intimidated if you're playing a higher rated opponent. Just this can do wonders man, keep it up!

I'm 1790 and since I've hit 1700 last week I haven't lost a game

Gz on 1700, well deserved! I like this format

good boy.

You definitely seem like in these games you adjusted your playing sliders: play to active square if available + 0.5, make waiting move if nothing jumps out to you +0.5.

Finally bro, i was rooting for u!

i actually like to watch the "live game" format, just because it´s more unpreditable and there are more emotions involved. but i can totally understand that this format works better for you/your games. cheers to 1700!

nice bro! Gzgz 1700

Great to see you again !!

Look who it is... you look familiar bro 🤣🤣, well done on 1700 came back better than ever. "I feel like I've figured something out", 👀

5:00 I get so many comments about this saying they can't believe 1800s blundered this and that. Reality is like you just said, it literally happens in everyone's games. We all suck💀💀💀💀

yo bro why your uploads slipping I used to watch you daily

playing with black is a night mare

good going on the journey

My friend walked in on me watching you and asked if that's Ice Poseidon 😄

2:00 kinda feels like something to calculate instead of overextended = bad truthfully id reject it because the pawn on f4 is weak and id want to play g3 weaking my diag(making bishop b7 good) but in true engine fashion stock fish wants you to sack the pawn 😂

Congrats maneee. Yeah about the 10/0 vs 15/10, I think there's a decent skill gap between the 2. Less accurate games in 10/0 and a lot more flags/time pressure. Feels like 2 completely different games tbh hahaha

Interesting game

KIng run- kf3 kg4 kh3 the rook gaurds the back rank. You can also block with the queen on f3 -the white queen is gaurded by the pawn.

Everyone knows prime voltz is 12am, not 2am, but you still played well!

Remote Chess Academy has a video on dealing with the italian as black. It helped me a lot, especially with the variant you faced in the first game

5...d5 in the slow Italian is quite a serious inaccuracy because White has a nasty double attack after 6.exd5 Nxd5 7.Qb3!, threatening to win a piece or the b7 pawn, though if your opponents don't find that move it's fine. 5...d6 is better and if they play Bg5 pinning the knight it's safe to play h6 and g5 at this time because White can't easily exploit it. If the pin and the worry about king safety bothers you that much though, you could also just try 5...h6 first.

'The master has failed more times than the student has even tried' - keep up the grind bro. every loss has something to teach us

Haven’t seen ur channel in a bit but you seem have a better understanding of the game. Good work my friend.

4 mins used, 95% accuracy.... something smells off to me. Same issue I SO often have, as a 1400/500 player - get to a nice middle-game position, forget X piece is hanging and it crumbles from there. Thanks for the content bro, have watched every episode. Feel your pain :)

i cant believe almighty stockfish doesnt like c5 @ 9:15 , freezing the pawn seems kinda nice

playing the scotch gambit would lead to a bit more fun positions rather than a bit equal middlegames and endgames.

Day 19764 of being a 1600🔥

Thanks papi

W game

5:26 no I think you win a clean knight here, not just a pawn, cuz he doesn't have time to recapture your bishop on g8 cuz you can play Bg5 and win his queen (which is the point of taking the knight, it can't block the check now)

The scotch leads to straight equality, no advantage for white . Play the Spanish or Italian. Even 3 knights is better.

This is why I don't play the mainline fantasy 💀

i remember i played this line against u as black and lost😂

Playing only rapid games alone will take you very long to reach 2000, do you also study chessable lifetime repertoires and endgames, tactics...?

two L's but decent games in the end tho!

Keep going on bro 💪🏻

Try to calculate moves by combination 4 or 5 moves ahead..if the trades doesn't land you on a good position don't do it..and also we have tendecy to place pieces on common square...it usually the wrong move.

Some tough games. Your first opponent played really well. Second game was a madness, but good practice for raw calculation. I usually stop when tired.

I struggle with the bird also. It's awkward and one of those openings that rare so you aren't familiar with the opening. Always catches me off guard hahah

D6 is not a move in the ruy lopez. Giving white full center control. i see you struggle against it. Play the main line or dont play e4 e5, play something like the french or modern. If you wanna play e4 e5 you gotta kearn theory for every single opening.

Tbf second game looked hard to play out of your opening. You got bunched up in the middle with all your minor pieces and looked a bit cramped. Well spotted on the bishop sac though

Cool first game even 1700 get hard❤😊

6:23 idk about the pirc but in the kid that break often loses the pawn for white so id be careful. Also id highly recommend the 150 attack against the pirc, ive won like every game ive played with it, you get to attack so easily (for me with pretty much 0 theory knowledge) and its really hard for black to defend

do u think alot of the random blunders could be because you get into time trouble, you always seem to be down on time before, id experiment with playing faster / trying to never be more than 2 minutes behind the opponent unless in really situational cases

Happy to see you again..The Grind continues..🎉

Had a feeling bro was headed for a stalemate. The Queen sacrifice and the h-pawn push was a foretelling. :D

An idea for the QGD with black is to play a6 for when you take on c4 you can play b5 with tempo and then fianchetto the lightsquared bisschop.

Second game was a masterclass in defence.
