Scandinavian power
I recently purchased the Scandinavian course, which is awesome. The first time I played it, my opponent accused me of cheating! The screenshots show our convo and moves thus far. The game is unrated, btw.

Good luck with the rest of the game. Material is even, however your opponent still has two undeveloped pieces sitting on the side lines. So the game certainly isn’t over yet. At least your opponent knows what he needs to study after the game.
Maybe you should send him the link to the course 🙂
-
lol way to go Matt!
-
Definitely send him a link bro! That’s awesome.

I just hit 1500!!
Thank you Nelson! It took about 18 months after I bought the course but I was able to go from 1100 to 1500 with the Stonewall and Owen’s defense.

High School Chess Team
I found a couple of friends I who were on the HS chess team with. It’s been over 40 years since Jon and I played. I beat him for the first time!

I suspect it is a very small group of us who played on HS chess teams over 40 years ago. I still meet up with a few of those friends regularly. Now I need to go look for my cane……

100% accuracy! Broke 1000 yet again too.
Easy to do when theres a slight mistake in the opening. Still learning Nelson’s winning with white but this time I remembered. Good game to my opponent!

Use the ladder when you're low on time!
Sloppy ending but effective. My brain was smoking but the ladder mate saved me. Good game to my opponent.

Quite the time crunch at the end. Twenty moves in your last 30 seconds!
2 -
Nicely done! It reminded me of some of Nelson’s games with that time pressure!
1 -
Quite risky not putting them in check at the end (with no pawn moves available for them). I’d suggest using increment to not put so much pressure on yourself with the clock in a rapid game.

Does Nelson
ever check in here to interact?
-
Not so much recently, perhaps he’ll check in more if he puts the course back on sale over some holiday in the future.

Looks like 3 brilliant moves to me, and very clearly a sacrifice that’s not completely obvious. Well done!
