Quick question - let’s say you play 2 casual rapid OTB games at your local chess club - the next day I ask you whether you can show me the games. What proportion of the moves would you be likely to remember?

Grovelling in a much worse position OTB last night, and not finding a good way to defend, I amused myself by finding actively bad ones. My opponent actually played 1.Rxb3 here - if he’d gone for 1.Bb5 instead, can you see what’s wrong with 1…0-0-0?

Seriously, can someone look into what’s going on here? #AdultImprover

Won tonight’s OTB game quickly and smoothly - 21 moves as Black against ECF 2000. Not many key moments but this is the position after White’s move 11, what’s your evaluation and what would you play here as Black?

Had this position as White against a 2300 ECF with 20 seconds on the clock - guess what I played…

My 2025 so far OTB: 5 wins 3 losses no draws vs 2200+: 0/3 (was winning two of them) vs 1900-2100: 5/5 (was losing two of them) Performance: 2233
