      Hi Nelson,

      In your coaching call you mentioned that winning 50% of your games was a large win percentage because draws should be about 25% of your game results. However, I hardly ever draw when playing in a chess.com 15/10 game. I usually either win or lose on time. I’ve tried to play 30 minute games, but even then i usually either win or lose (50% on time, 50% because ive been mated). Should i expect to draw more at higher ELO?

      • Yeah Richard, draws increase with rating I believe. Not unusual for lower/intermediate players to rarely get draws.
