Great job on your recent games! You show solid understanding in several key areas, especially in tactical awareness and creating pressure on your opponents. Let’s review some strengths and potential areas to focus on to improve even further:
Strengths
- Tactical Sharpness: You demonstrated excellent tactical vision in your wins. For example, your swift exploitation of pins and forks helped create decisive material gains.
- Opening Play: You’ve chosen sound and flexible openings like the King's Fianchetto and Four Knights Game, setting up stable positions that suit your style.
- Endgame Technique: You show good technique in converting advantages, often forcing your opponent into resignation by creating multiple threats.
Areas to Work On
- Time Management: In some games, time pressure affected your decision-making. Try to balance spending time on critical positions while maintaining a steady pace to avoid rushed mistakes.
- Defense Under Pressure: In recent losses, your position sometimes became passive against aggressive play. Focus on improving defensive resources and counterplay when under attack.
- Positional Evaluation: Work on deepening your understanding of positional factors such as pawn structure, weak squares, and piece activity. This will help in strategic planning beyond immediate tactics.
