Cliffs: I lost vs. a 1924 player as Black. Didn't get to play the 2250,
.
opening - didn't stick to what I should know is my repertoire move, got into a bad position
middlegame - got into a decent position, was a bit too ambitious in my thinking and it got bad again
endgame - blundered, he blundered back, he went into the only winning line for me but I blitzed everything out thinking I had seen a winning line. The line was not winning, however, I did see the winning move but unfortunately it was just after I had blitzed out a move from the non-winning line.
Fun game, hard to turn my brain off - it keeps thinking over and over about the move I did actually see but a move too late and didn't play. I showed it to my opponent right after the game and was like "I lose there, why didn't you play it?" I was like "I don't know, I think I was playing too quickly for no good reason,
"
Annotating the game and will post shortlyish.
