The amount of blunders in the game is ridiculous, such as allowing ...Nxe4 on move 9 or blundering my queen instead of the simple Nxg6#

still kind of a fun game while intoxicated

beat: I was winning a game easily ( knight + pawn ahead) but the guy timed out on every game and now I get less ratings points.

subtle brag: I was winning a game easily.

To make matters worse, you get fewer points.

Beat: After a long drag-out battle with a guy I was stuck where he had a forced mate I think.

Brag: He played something else and now it looks like I will win, eventually.

Material is even but I've got 2 Rooks, and 6 pawns, 1 of which is passed and a serious threat to promote. He's got 4 pawns, a Queen, and Knight. We're on move 58.

Like I said! I couldn't believe he played Ne2+. I had a full write-up and subsequent computer analysis write-up in my blog. He made 5 blunders but they were very late and very sizable.

I had white here, and we'd repeated this position once. I was just hoping for one more, when my opponent surprised me with

Luckily, even I could spot the winning tactic from there.

I take it the game didn't end in a draw after that, therefor your opponent achieved their goal of avoiding a three fold repetition

Brag: Hikaru Nakamura is "aware of" my blog.

That is extremely sick exposure for him to mention it on chess.com. Good job.

Now you can use this to your advantage. Troll him.

Beat: Lost an exchange after stupidly pinning my Rook to my Queen, typed "Fantastic" to opponent.

Brag: Later in same game, won exchange after opponent stupidly pinned his Rook to his Queen, then typed "Fantastic" to me.

I lost to Bartholomew a few times on those bullet tournaments, so I was probably on youtube for a few seconds.

I did play Jerry once in a simul (only streamed, not on YT).

Congrats man, that's excellent. Also, the ratings deflation in that pool is ridiculous.
