Originally posted by Dragon Fire Had a win with a Ruy Lopez Open (as black) against a player graded 2050, a couple of solid wins with KGA against 1850 opposition and a few good draws with my Benonis against 2000 opponents but the best was a Grob victory against a 2175.
Most other games were lines I had not been practising a lot here.
It will be interesting where by grade goes when ...[text shortened]... cant improvement. Trouble is I don't play enough rated games OTB so changes happen very slowly.
Nice work.
It's nice to have a club close by so you can get lots of practise in.
I was wondering how on earth he can keep up with the games. I joined the last (June) hardcore grand tourney, 0/21, and of course he did as well. I myself am going mad by the load of games I have to make moves in, blundering in some of them already, and I'm still below 100 games... but as people said, he seems to make decent moves. All the same, it would make me go crazy just to think about it.
