Quick profile snapshot
- Peak rapid rating: 1392 (2025-07-20)
- When you usually win:
- How your results vary by day:
What’s already working
- Sharp tactical eye – Sacrifices like Nxf7 (win vs CoelhoLapin) and 33.Qxf8# (win vs alainrigaud) show real attacking flair.
- Converting advantages – Once you gain the initiative you rarely let go; most recent wins finished before move 35.
- Piece activity focus – Your minor pieces jump to strong outposts (e.g. Ne5, Ng6) creating constant pressure.
Recurring problems costing you points
- Early queen adventures – Loss vs Azh9780: the queen moved five times by move 12 and you trailed in development.
- Loose king when you’re Black – Games vs ThaiRing & vimalnkn show castling late or grabbing pawns instead of finishing development.
- End-game technique – Several 60-move defeats indicate gaps in basic K+P knowledge and practical zugzwang handling.
- Clock pressure – You often reach move 25 with under two minutes, after which blunders spike.
4-week improvement roadmap
| Week | Main focus | Practical task |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Sound openings | Prepare a compact 1.e4 repertoire that avoids early queen moves; as Black, learn first 10 moves of the Philidor Defense & Caro-Kann. |
| 2 | King safety & prophylaxis | After every opponent move ask “What’s the threat?” – 50 puzzles featuring back-rank or exposed-king mates. |
| 3 | Core end-games | Drill K+P vs K, Lucena & Philidor positions until you can set them up from memory. |
| 4 | Time management | Play 10 rapid games; limit opening thinking time to 1 min total, aim to have >4 min left by move 20. |
Game of the week – tactical highlight
Key lesson: Black’s …Bxg2 pawn grab looked scary, but your precise 18.Nxf7+! exploited loose pieces and turned the tables. Calculate forcing lines before accepting structural damage.
Next steps
- Annotate one win & one loss each week; focus on why you chose moves, not just engine verdicts.
- Play a weekly “serious” rapid match vs a ~1500 opponent and review it the same day.
- Re-check the and in a month to measure progress.
Keep the fighting spirit, embrace analytical review of losses as eagerly as you celebrate wins, and your rating will climb. Good luck on your chess journey!
