| General Chess Discussion - lichess's puzzle is unfair! #6 @Epps that's how Elo ratings are supposed to work! Let's say you are rated 3000 and you get a 1600 rated puzzle wrong, what do you expect? | wrath_ss |

| Game analysis - First time I`ve won such rate...could anyone give an advice or said my mistakes? Please)#6 QGA is playable as long as you don't try to hold the pawn. 9.. e5? and it is easy to see this is bad. Just 10. dxe5! Bxe5 11. Nf3!

| Game analysis - Question on central tension in QGD#9 White takes on d5 because white is unable to keep the tension. Let's say 8. 0-0, black has Capablanca's freeing maneuver (not this exact position but same idea, which I believe is not known to Amos Bu… | wrath_ss |
| Game analysis - Defeating a 2370 in 21 moves#7 The game is very cool! That was just nasty. | wrath_ss |
| Game analysis - How strong am I playing?#6 I have to say you are not at 1400 strength as play was simply horrible: 6. exd5? should never be played as you just corrected black's pawn structure. The more natural 6. 0-0 dxe4? 7. dxe4 is very good… | wrath_ss |
| Game analysis - Endgame Assistance#2 Probably what you are not doing is immediately activating your king and allowing white's king to support the passed pawn, after which it is very difficult to win. After 41. Ke3 Kf8! 42. Bxb4+ Ke8, bla… | wrath_ss |
