MADE IT! Thanks Nelson for not just the course but also the invaluable rapid chess streams that you’re putting out every week. These are extremely instructive and I probably wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t for those streams. I was 1489 in April this year and since then I struggled a lot going up and down and then finally today crossed 1500 for…

Hey @ChessVibes I know you recommend to increase the time control so I started playing 15|10 and it’s nice because I blunder less BUT my opponent’s also blunder less and are finding way better moves making it harder to beat them. So now I started losing due to missed opponent’s tactics like here:…

I took the advice to increase my time control from 10|0 to 15|10 and look at this: 91% accuracy and 2250 estimated rating. I just beaten an almost 100 elo higher rated player in style – getting to 1480 now and continuing a 10-games win streak in rapid. This is too good – thanks @ChessVibes ! Btw. Caro-Kann for the…

Just finished the course. I was already around 1450 going into the course, but I think it was well worth it. My biggest eye opener was how much time and emphasis should be spend on the blunder check aspect of the game. As suggested in the last module I took a look at my last 20 losses and here is what I found out: 11/20 losses were due to a…

Hey Nelson, I’m still early in the course (module 2) and I love it. My peak rapid rating is 1489 and now I’m 1435 having dropped below 1400 multiple times over the past few weeks/months. What I struggle the most is that once in a while I play a perfect game, steady, growing my advantage from the start, estimated rating by chess dot com of 2200…

One problem with longer time controls is that your opponent also has more time hence they are likely to play better moves and blunder less. I’ve been there haha and even though I still lose on time occasionally I’m sticking with 10|0

Because it is the easiest section to get a lot of games, I try to play in the 10 minute arena, but the number of games I lose on time, even from a completely winning position, is […]
