Playing chess until I hit 2000: Day 249

#chess
This is day 249 of my journey to get to a rating of 2000 on chess.com.
This game came out of a Jobava and I felt super confident in the opening, just wish I would have simplified down better before blundering to a Queen check! Eughh, still happy I won though! Further up and further in!!
So far on the series:
187 wins 25 draws 156 losses

As a 1100 player it's great watching you win games like this while still making some mistakes along the way. It shows me I don't need to be perfect to progress.

[@Blunder_Man]

@@JonEmerson I'm glad it's helpful! I think that the analysis board is the most helpful things I've added because it really tells everyone if what I'm saying is accurate haha

Jobava is so easy to play into a good middlegame. But you still gotta prove it. It's a fantastic opening.

Good game. That middle game was pretty scary. Good job!

[@Blunder_Man]

Thanks lad, yeah it was intense for sure!

[@mandrake8506]

It was a really exciting game! You had a strong opening and as you said it is wise to slow down if you get such an advantage, but it still was quite a complicated position. I think it was equally heartbreaking that he was unable to make a crushing comeback than it would have been for you to lose the game after such opening, there were no losers here

[@Blunder_Man]

@@mandrake8506 haha, there was one loser though, and I need to tell myself that every time I win hahaha

[@mandrake8506]

@@Blunder_Man For sure, you obviously saw the check and simply wanted to keep the game interesting for the sake of audience!
