A player is following a line in a game against you, which comes from one of your own games, which you lost to a much higher rated player? :-o

Particularly hard when you didn't lose to an obvious tactic...

Promise myself to thoroughly analyze more of my own games, especially losses against higher rated opponents. Good opportunities to learn 🙂

Haha! No, not you :-p

Sure I need to make a different move! Hard to find (what I think are) good ones in a game I was really trying to win. Headaches coming I reckon...

I got this new strategy for my games. I click on a game from my "games waiting" list and I make the first legal move that I spot. Ah hell, it can't be any worse than the way things have been going!
