Post your blunders

@TGBM95 yes I tried various opening in my games and it is casual game so why not try out a Latvian gambit .. But I did not thought that a 1300 rated player will play perfect moves in the opening and crushed me ... But I guess he is very happy with his win so when I asked for a serious rematch he just declined ... Nevertheless have to say that my opponent played well ...


So this whole game was a blunder. Don't even know what I was thinking since when I did the "learn from your mistakes" in the analysis board I made what stockfish considered the right move.


Cracking like an egg in an apparently defensible position. Stockfish suggests that Re3, protecting the knight, allows me to continue suffering indefinitely at -0.5 or -1.0.

Instead 18.Rd1??? Qxf3 -- the pawn is pinned and cannot recapture -- is now a mate in five, with great pressure exerted on the g-/f-pawns.

(18. Rd1??? Qxf3 19. Kf1 Rxg2 etc.)


In this game I tried to do the London system but made a ton of blunders like 18.rook to d1 etc...(it was a blitz game)but eventually I defeated the opponent with check mate


Don't ask why I did that, I just wasn't thinking properly


Ba4??? allowing immediate mate from the knight and queen.

In this game I think I overevaluated my queenside position, since I was quite happy to have opened the b-file with 12...Bxc3+ 13.bxa3. I should also have resolved the position with a queen trade before castling (16...Qd2+ 17.Qd2 Qxd2+ 18.Nxd2). It also seems very much fine to keep my king in the centre with plans of Rf8 and breaking with the f-pawn.



I've also got this simple queen hang fresh off the press, though that doesn't meet my own standards of interest.
