4 Connected Passed Pawns (Post #17)

Hello again! This game is a rematch with the person I beat yesterday. This time, I ended up in a roughly equal position, but ended up creating 4 connected passed pawns and winning the game.

 

So yeah… I don’t think that even a grandmaster could have defended there at the very end, 4 connected passed pawns was just too much.

Tactical Snippet #1

Hi everyone! I’m going to start to supplement my normal posts with small tactical snippets that I come across in my games. With that said, let's check out this first one.   As you can see, Black ends up a rook up, at the cost of only a pawn! I played this game yesterday and fortunately, my opponent disconnected just at this moment. I ended up winning the game due to them being inactive.

Second Game from my Tournament (Post #28)

Hi! I finally put in my second game from the tournament, so here it is. My opponent played more passively, and I was able to get the initiative and start an attack. Afterward, some poor decisions left me with a slight edge, and my opponent missed a tactic that let me win a minor. They then tried a trap for me, which I didn’t fall for, leaving me up a rook. After that, it was just cleanup.   I was pretty glad to win that game. My score for the tournament at this point was 1/2, which is okay considering that I hold the lowest rating of 888 (though I’m probably underrated considering my chess.com rating is around 1500). I’ll hopefully get to posting my next game, so stay tuned! Also an update, my first tournament game stopped showing up, so I’ll fix that.

Continuing to Climb (Post #11)

Welcome back! I once again achieved new highs with this game! I surpassed my previous 1465 rating, and now have reached 1471 :D. This game was highly swayed in my favor due to a tactic I found, and then I found a critical move to prevent a tactic from being used on me. I then finished off with another tactic to finish off my opponent. This was one of the games that I’m pretty proud of. I don’t think I really played any bad moves, and I made the right ones in the key positions.
