Having recently played a few howlers on here I can see anyone with
a heavy game load falling for that.
procoalex has been beaten 3 times by demon88 all in December last year.
It may be coaching games. I have often been PM'd after a blog to get the
background details which often throw a new light on what has happened.
As I said in a recent blog the bare score never tells the full story.

Too bad.... Let's wait and try again some day.
It's an inspiring improvement - from 1420 in Jan to 2120 in Oct. A significant number of RHP 'improvers' begin their climb up the ratings in January. Just goes to show what a combination of a Xmas present & a New Year's resolution can do 🙂

My chess Christmas present last year from my oldest son was the book: "Garry Kasparov On Garry Kasparov Part I: 1973 - 1985". It will probably take me that many years to get through it at my present knowledge of chess.

it will probably take you that long to read the preface! ask for a book with picture
Ronald, if you are a good boy perhaps Santa will bring you Judith Polgars new book! It
has lots of pictures in it apparently.

A diagram picture of each move would make it a lot easier for me. Now, I can't really follow it without setting up a board. I always fall asleep before I can play through an entire game anyway.
