Playing chess everyday until I reach 2000 days

[@tsf_space]

I think Patrick needs a slight change in the title

[@jarateman6427]

@@tsf_space U think? He was like 1500 a year ago.

[@keithrichardscorpse1230]

Need to play a LOT more than 1 game per day to sniff anywhere close to 2000 lol.

En passant is a move you know….

[@edisonleka8937]

Bruh...The opponent was in really big trouble with that rook pin and you just go and exchange all your attacking pieces.....

[@MrDanielfff777]

I agree; that was a pin that would have lasted for a while. he should have tried to add more pressure to the pin

[@IMustHaveThatApe]

That would require a basic understanding of chess

[@smildob2776]

And overlooked it completely even in the analysis.

[@shanecle]

Just curious. What moves would you have done differently? Yes, he had a pin, but I am not seeing how he could have exploited it further.

[@edisonleka8937]

​@@shanecle I didn't analyze it at all, but when you are attacking you don't trade your pieces unless if it is to make the attack more deadly, that is chess 101,

[@saadrathore4408]

Surprised to see you drop below 1400

[@MrDanielfff777]

After 500 days!!!

[@radscorpion8]

@@MrDanielfff777 it shows you unless you know what you're doing, time spent does not equal expertise lol

[@sleep99PS3]

15:10 forget maintaining the pin to hold the tension, lets trade down into a complex endgame which we know you struggle with. Just silly.

[@chad1755]

I can't watch this anymore. He gets so caught up in calculating for tactics that aren't there he ignores the opening principles and ends up in a big mess, all to run out of time and then throw the game. He needs a coach, or something to drag him out of his bad habits. I'll check back in 6 months or so to see if anything has changed.

[@TheCHACHachurro]

Thanks for letting everyone know!

[@radscorpion8]

I was hoping for that 1300 reverse-celebration cake. I love this channel man XDD

[@shanecle]

I’m surprised that the opponent accepted the draw, considering how low Patrick was on time, I reckon that he might have had a chance of winning.

[@jacobpallesen3558]

Passing by , and actually hoping for some progress You still not passed the first fundamental in chess " develop my pieces "...????? Wooow sorry but thats just crazy.. After posting 505 days plus whatever chess you played besides this. Holy cow ... Well i still wish you better days playing chess. All the best.

[@kaleabalemayehu-ln8rw]

bro its not the same for every one, take a chill pill

[@jacobpallesen3558]

​@@kaleabalemayehu-ln8rw Hes a grown man , and i wish him all the best improving. The truth is its crazy

[@Shudie-z9e]

This game is a good example, when you offer a pawn or piece for trade you often only calculate if they take it. This lead to you playing Nd2 in this game, which stifled your development severely.

[@markneubieser8484]

100% true here. Patrick even mentioned how the opponent was holding back from initiating the trading of pieces. The one who initiates often gives the opponent an improved position after the trade.

So much roasting in the comments lol! I'm 700 so ill be sure to always keep my crappy games private looool 😅

[@zariqhusrev8236]

Chess is a rough game. You have 2000 potential though, so keep it up Patrick.

[@aries2764]

what makes you think so? honestly i don't see him reaching even 1600

[@danielmccachern2307]

Good try I guess... 😂😅😂😅 Seeing the rook pin and free pawn was really nice. But that end game..

[@Marenqo]

They could have won the game by moving Forward the pawn to A3

[@shazilla4]

Dude very close game!

[@teampls4312]

Were you a model when you were younger?

[@Misha_Ponziani]

Unbelievable....you had completely winning position😔

[@EricLancheres]

The rules were good, keep them up. Let's just not forget to develop the pieces (that's one of the first rules right? We had 2 pieces that didn't develop for half the game.)

[@JedTigersJUK]

Before he traded the rooks and queen, why not push that pawn to take the pinned rook on the next turn?

[@Ggcccccffff]

If you talking about e6 after Qe8 that would hang your rook bc their rook would no longer be pinned

[@Mathemagical55]

Chess is a difficult game but developing your pieces isn't difficult at all. I cannot understand how after all this time you're playing Nf3-d2 and Be2-g4 when your rook, bishop and queen are all on their original squares. Stop moving pieces twice in the opening and focus on development.

[@jacobpallesen3558]

Yeah crazy stuff , and even gets surprised when opponent develops ( castles ) instead of taking back. Just Knigt f3, instead of that bishop moving twice crap. Opens up black bishop at the same time. Im bufuddled uf thats even a word. And i think its kind of not fun that Patrick is having so much problems with so little and so obvious moves .

[@MrDanielfff777]

@jacobpallesen3558 Yh the bishop moves early on were bizzare

[@Misha_Ponziani]

Progress is still progress. No matter how slow. 😊

[@chad1755]

But there has not been any progress...

[@charleseckstein7849]

U blew that game. U started thinking too much at the end. 10/5 prolonged the game. Straight 10 min game u Zap would have run out of time.
