Quick recap

Nice win, جاسم جاسم — you converted a sharp middlegame attack into a resignation against andruhinskiy. You created and used open lines toward the enemy king after your opponent castled opposite sides. Below is the game so you can replay the critical sequence on mobile:

Replay:

What you did well

• You identified and attacked the enemy king quickly after opposite-side castling — your pawn pushes and piece activity opened files (the f- and d-files) at the right time.
• Good tactical vision: the sequence with ...f4 followed by ...fxe3 and later ...Qxg2 / ...Re2 showed awareness of tactical targets around the king.
• Active pieces — queen, rooks and bishops coordinated to create mating and material threats rather than passively waiting.
• Strong overall trend and confidence: your recent results and the big rating jump show you’re improving quickly. Keep that momentum.

Where to improve

• King safety when castling opposite sides: O-O-O was playable here, but it made your king vulnerable once lines opened. If you castle opposite, plan immediate pawn storms or avoid trades that open the file toward your king.
• Avoid creating targets with pawn captures around your king (for example, exchanges that open the f-file). Think “will this open a file toward my king?” before capturing.
• Time management / clock control: a few of the other games ended on time. Even in daily games, consistent pacing and regular checks of critical positions reduce flag losses.
• Opening clarity: many games are labeled “Unknown.” Building a short, reliable opening repertoire will get you good middlegame positions more often.

Concrete next steps (practice plan)

• Daily tactics — 10–20 puzzles per day focused on discovered checks, pins and forks (these patterns came up in your win).
• Opposite-side castling drills — play or review 10–20 games where kings castle opposite sides and practice the pawn-storm vs. opening-files tradeoffs.
• Opening basics — pick two white and two black setups and learn the typical pawn breaks and piece plans. For example: Reti Opening as White and study ideas from Nimzo-Larsen Attack / Australian Defense if those appeal.
• Endgame foundation — basic rook endgames (Lucena, Philidor) and simple king + pawn technique so you convert material advantages confidently.
• Time control habit — when you play daily games, set small checkpoints: check position after every 5 moves and avoid making long think pauses except on critical decisions.

Key moments from the win — what to remember

• 12...f4 then 13...fxe3: excellent plan to pry open the center and expose the white king. When you can force open a file to the opponent’s king, look for pawn sacrifices like this.
• 20...cxd5 and 21...Qxe3+: good follow-up — once lines opened you prioritized checks and piece activity rather than grabbing extra pawns.
• 31...Re2 finished the game: coordinated rook + queen threats can be decisive. When you see a way to invade the 2nd/7th rank with rooks, calculate concrete tactical finishes.

Small checklist for your next game

• Before castling, ask: “Which side will the opponent attack?”
• Before capturing near the king, ask: “Does this open a file or diagonal toward my king?”
• If you get the initiative, trade into positions where your active pieces stay active (don’t trade your attacker for a defender lightly).
• Spend 30s–1min every few moves to scan for opponent candidate tactics (checks, captures, threats).

Keep it up

Your trend and adjusted win rate show strong progress. Stick to the short practice plan above, focus on tactics and king-safety in opposite-side castling games, and you’ll keep improving fast. If you want, I can produce a 2-week daily training plan tailored to the games you just played.
