Yesssssssssssssss!!!!!!🥳🥳🥳🥳 thank you kevin and thanks to everyone, kepp going you can get here as well!!!!

Ironic that I made a brilliant move in a game where I was game-rated 100. It was my intention to not blunder, and I was successful in that. But I had 18 misses and 5 mistakes. Another game where we both played poorly. My major disappointment was missing a mate in two on move 41. The game lasted 81 moves. Although I didn't get a good endgame accuracy, it was interesting, and resulted in me ladder-mating when we both had two queens on the board. I had a chance to better protect my bishop but lazily allowed it to trade with a knight and then I took the other bishop. https://www.chess.com/a/32zYBirucNaTg?classification=

Just reached 3000 elo on puzzle!!!!!, but ngl lichess puzzles are just better and free.

Hey, the tournament just ended... and here (vesus link, if you want) the results: I arrived 3° out of the 30 partecipants! I scored 4.5 /6 I gained 39 ELO and with this tournament and the last one i gained 108 points... and i'm close to 1N! (For those who don't know, it's a title you get once you reach 1800) I'm really satisfied and the games were pretty nice, and i think i played well in all of them I also won a sort of box with a lot of food, which is always nice😂 So today i made the last three games and i won the fourth round, drew the fifth and won the sixth The fourth game was interesting, i played against an NC 1399, so i didn't win ELO, but it was a nice game He played an Alapin and i played an interesting line where i sacraficed a pawn to get a middlegame/endgame of pieces without queen where he has the king in the center and i have an edge in development and activity He played inaccurately and he gave me back the pawn almost immediately and then, with all the activity and threaths i was able to go to an endgame of rooks and bishop against rooks and knight up a pawn, i traded a pair of rooks and then i won the b2 pawn, he could have defended but this would have required passivity, so he went for couterplay, but it hadn't worked and i forced a rook trade, winning then the b2 pawn and the game In the fifth game i played against a 1754, he played a sort of sidelines against the sicilian, which i used to call "italian setup" which beginners sometimes play, but he's not surely a beginner So that is considered not that great for white because black can get the center but of course it's playable After some trades, i went for a queenside expansion, i was struggling a little bit then, when my queeside pawns became suddendly a bit weak, but nothing worrying We traded then to a rook endgame, he offered a rook trade, and i decided to keep the rook, thinking that my rook was a little bit more active... but my d4 pawn was a bit overextended, and i lost it, i should have gone Ke6 with the king and not Kf6, but by trading another pair of pawns, the endgame should be a draw, but with low time it could be difficult to defende

New puzzle record!!!!!!!!! 2903!!! On my way to 3000
