    This is day 220 of my journey to get to a rating of 2000 on chess.com.
    In todays game we played a Jobava London. I feel a bit bad about this one because I was completely winning the entirety. I need to brush up on my simple tactics of how to push an advantage, because I def let this slip out of my hands. Oh well.
    So far on the series:
    1565 wins 20 draws 126 losses

    Take a look at 8:48, your King is trapped, you moved rook f4, but your opponent can position the other rook at b7, double trapping your king, then sacrifice the f6 pawn that you wanted to take, and checkmated you with rook A2, as the B column was guarded. He later made a mistake with A2 check (without covering the B column) and your king was free again. In Those complex cases, when you have two pawns more, just change one of the rooks, as it would be impossible for your opponent to find a trick or trap your king.

    Great game! I learned a few things about rook end games from watching this. It's incredible that you can calculate, deploy tactics and guess what the other player is going to do. Then explain it to everyone watching at the same time. Mental gymnastics 💪

      You're too kind haha, I don't think I'm able to do any of those things particularly well, but I'm glad you enjoy it!

    Owen! You consistently see these tactical moves/mistakes seconds after you play your move. You’re seeing things your opponents don’t see
    I know you can make it to 2000!!!!
