I think we should refrain from engaging in Chess Wars on RedHotPawn. Hopefully soon we will have enough players interested to generate an actual UM Tournament. We are getting closer! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diddyman68 Posted August 11, 2020 #782 Share Posted August 11, 2020 Do any of you guys play someone regular,think you are in control of the game and end up losing.? I've played my nemisis 6 or 7 times,and in every game ive started off great,by mid game im normally a few pieces up and in a strong position.then he just turns it on,and bang,game over.....or i get worn down and he chips away. Its like first half im playing an amateur and second half a pro. The game im playing now, I was confident,then....he trapped my queen. Oh well theres always next time.

Its a big learning process for everybody, especially when you play higher ranked players.or even players with similar rank but many more games under their belt. Finishing is the weakest part of my game,but im working on it. The more you play ,the better you get.as long as you remember your mistakes and learn from them. Everybody is taking baby steps,but some have taken more than others. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
