Words of wisdom were spoken! It is in deed easy to find a tactic, when you know it's there, like in puzzles. Whereas in an actual game you begin with an evaluation, whether tactics are in the air or not. However, one dimension of your success is the ability to find decent moves even when the position is not tactical at all. The first game illustrates this point nicely. Well played!
Thanks so much brother! Yeah... Chess seems easy when watching, especially with an eval bar. I'll try to be more aware! I think I've started to notice "odd" moves, but often can't figure out why
Once you hit around 1980, that's where it gets to that next difficulty level, and progress can plateau for a little bit - Prepare yourself for this, its not you, you will be getting better, its the competition. Very well done.
My instinct was c3 so I'm glad you chose it. And when black offered the queen trade I was glad you accepted. Sadistic Tushi is great at jobava and he's very comfortable with moving his king to Kf2.
@Blunder_Man I like analysis probably more than the game, so I can tell you for sure lots and lots of 2k+ games end with the opponent playing a dumb move. I wouldn't be surprised if you made it this year so I'll give you 60/40 because I know how easy it is to lose 50 points in 2 hours... you're close, but bad things can happen fast too.

I've a feeling I may drop 200 points all of a sudden! I'm prepared! Hahaha

@@walterbrownstone8017 yes.. I think c3 was second best move, and Kf2 is always solid, I just need to be okay to play it!
@Blunder_Man did you get lucky game 2?
@@walterbrownstone8017 super lucky bro
