Does anyone else seem to be matching against a lot of cheaters lately? It feels like every 3-4 games I play against someone with 95+ accuracy.

I don’t understand chess.com. I had 2 games with 99+ accuracy for whatever reason. I have plenty of losses too. I have been practicing a lot from this course and also watching another chess coach, trying new openings and strategies. I got my account banned today for those 2 games. I’m about done with chess.com…

I’ve been going through these modules in excruciating detail, yet I always lose. I can’t even break 700…I don’t understand why every player manages to beat me no matter what I try.
