This is my personal chess blog.
I will write here whatever pleases me.

Nothing Else To Do (200809) | Quarantine Blitz is the new chess. There is nothing else to do. This time the time format was 5+0 and as usual I started off completely wrong, but came back strong. Maybe I should warm up with 3-5 games the hour before. I really do not care.
The game was not going my way at this point, so I decided to
let faith decide it, 61... Rf3. Meanwhile, White had determined
that both pawns were needed, so he advanced the king, and lost.
Unfortunately, my early "on fire" period was shut down by myself
due to incredibly stupid play. Instead of taking a moment and
defend with 28. c5, I pushed on the attack, and by the time h6
was played, I suddenly had problems on the other side.
In my final game of the day there was an interesting choice of
going for a Q vs RR endgame. Of course, White theatens 26. Ne5
with a rook cut-off. Since the white rooks are not doing much
on the queenside I went for it, 25... Re2+, and won quickly
since White did not defend very well. This also put me above 2100
for the first time.
