Hi Gabor!
Below is personalised feedback based on your latest blitz games (3|0) as Pidzsy. Use it as a short-term improvement plan.

What You Already Do Well
- Dynamic Imbalances. Wins such as 1. a4 g6 2. b3… show you willingly steer into asymmetry and then out-calculate your opponents.
- Tactical Vision. Motifs like …Rxf2 (Game vs Ephraim Rosenstock, move 23) or the rook incursion in QuickSilver2 – Pidzsy indicate healthy calculation habits.
- Practical Adaptability. Repeated success with the off-beat Modern Defense and the Larsen-style 1.b3 keeps rivals out of book.
Recurring Pain Points
- Ceding the Centre Too Soon.
• Game vs chicho72: 3…dxc4 left you a pawn down and without central influence.
• Flank openings are fine, but aim to contest d4/e4 by move 10. - King Safety in Flank Structures.
• Loss to Chesscolic8: dark-square collapse (…Bf3#).
• Principle: if your bishop leaves c1/f8 early, verify f2/f7 three moves deep. - Time Management.
• Timeout vs FM-DavidsonR from a drawable ending.
• Your clock is often <45 s by move 25; set a target of >75 s.
Two-Week Action Plan
| Days | Task | Objective |
|---|---|---|
| 1-3 | Self-annotate last 10 losses with 1.b3/1.g3. Mark moments where pawn centre was lost. | Find three repeat errors. |
| 4-7 | Repertoire patch: add 1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 e6 3.g3 (Catalan) as a solid anchor; for Black study Pirc lines where …d6 is played by move 2. | Maintain central tension in at least one opening per colour. |
| 8-10 | Solve 50 tactical puzzles/day in ≤3 min each, focusing on dark-square mates & intermediate moves. | Puzzle Rush 3-min +5 score. |
| 11-14 | Clock drill: 15 bullet games (≥5 s per first five moves) + 5 blitz games with a “≥80 s on move 25” goal. | Smoother time usage. |
Illustrative Moment
Notice how your activity snowballed in the following fragment; aim to replicate the same energy when defending:
Quick Reminders
- Adopt the rule “central break by move 10” when playing flank systems.
- Review one basic rook ending per day; better endgame confidence will let you simplify earlier.
- Keep the surprise value of off-beat lines, but balance it with at least one main-line choice so opponents cannot over-prepare.
Good luck, Gabor. Keep grinding, and feel free to share your next set of games for an updated review!
