game 3213254

Heres a game where i tried the grob for the first time.

I thought that this opening would generate more aggressive and faster games. Any comments?

Please don't post here if you are going to highlight my or my opponents blunders. I know i made several that should have cost be the game if it wasn't for some bizzare play by black in the final few moves.

and my second question...
Why is it that playing lower rated players makes me play worse chess even if i put the same amount of thought into my moves.Game 3213254

No this is the game he wants Game 3213254.

Awesome opening but you will win any game where your opponent just keeps dropping pieces. You wouldn't have got away with it against a better opponent as you made a number of strategic errors. For example f3? h4 would be normal here. Also you failed to capitalise on the long white diagonal which is the strategic and tactival point of the opening.

In 2 words over confidence. You expect a quick win and go foe cheap patzer tricks. I do it also which is why I succeed in losing a fair number of games to 1500 opponents. Such is life!

You probably THINK that you play enough good aganist weak opponents, but you would play much different the same positions when your opponent is 200 points above you. It is like disease

when both players have that many blunders in their game, it really doesn't matter what opening they played

I feel sorry for black though, Not only did he/she miss the draw, they also missed a win...
