Ever had a good game you felt you played well? I just did and SF approves! http://en.lichess.org/K5CLIoJl
However I'm not posting because of that game but the one directly after. I'm sure everyone has had one of those games where they are a victim of chess blindness and fail to see absolutely trivial tactics. Well in the following game I played mostly ok until I blunder the queen not for one, but two moves in a row! The best part is that my opponent failed to realize it as well.

So if you should be down in the dumps, just take a look at the game and realize that sometimes, even a titled player can make unbelievable blunders, especially at faster time controls. It's nothing to be embarrassed about!
