hopefully i can find a way to chill and notice if im making "holes" and "weaknesses"

won again with 19:17 left this time, feel like the longer games might be softer than blitz on lichess i just mopped up a 1620, seems like the players minds are just moving slower rather than taking the time to make better moves, tho in this game i thought i had my opponent trapped and he managed to dig his way out after a long think, maybe training yrself to think fast in blitz then taking time to think in longer time controls is the way to go, just have to have enough discipline to actually take the time to think lol
maybe doing jerry style thinking out loud wld help, have some stock questions u ask yrself and so forth

i get annoyed when ppl let the clock run down instead of resigning but then i think about them closing a tab in anger and its funny

just played the funniest game ever
e4 e5d4 d5Nc3 Bb4
white resigns in disgust. computer has him +0.67 but the opening is too sick. he will play against a normal person next, he hopes

lol

the game that just pushed me over 15hundo the opponent resigned inexplicably too material was even i had a better but not dominant position and he was way up on time, i looked at the engine analysis to see if there was some sick tactic i was missing but there wasnt, maybe they just had to be somewhere idk

scandinavian is wild xp i like when ppl play that v me its usually a p fun game, i always take
― lag∞n, Thursday, 4 October 2018 00:05 (five years ago) link
Taking is the best move for white iirc I always do it when someone plays scandi against me and anecdotally I’ve found ppl that don’t take don’t do great
― Mordy, Thursday, 4 October 2018 00:19 (five years ago) link
yeah i think its generally agreed that its best

both of them are good but as a proud european i am far more commonly seen with the holy trinity of agad/mato/suren

I need to mix up my opening repertoire. I play Italian or Queens Gambit with white. Then just copy what white does for black (eg. 1. e4 2. e5 1. d4 2. d5) I always lose really badly when I try Sicilian.
