At last. Something clicked in my head ! I am seeing things better. I am doing endgame studies tons of CTS tactics, blitz on FICS, chessmaster drills (undefended pieces under time attack) every day for 4 hours last 3 weeks. I even learnt every square color to improve visualization.

And now, suddenly, I can not lose ! 30 games in a row against 1200-1400.

Nice 😛

I noticed that ( no tournaments), instead you beat up on the 1200-1400 players, there are those that would consider that sandbagging!!

When you are down with points, the fastest way to return points is to play a lot of games against a bit weaker opponents. They are not obliged to accept my open invites and some of them even offer rematches ! So no problem with my opponents.

I wasn't saying you were sandbagging, I said there are those would see it as such. My rating runs between 1400-1800 when I have a heavy game load, I assume there are those who would claim that sandbagging, who have never had a heavy game load. 😉 !!

Actually since I posses Chessmaster 10th edition and Fritz 10 as well, I really do not need Chessmaster 2000.

Wanna game ?
