Hi suriya0123!

Great job playing regularly and already hitting 802 (2024-08-19) in the mid-700s. Below is some personalised feedback based on your latest games, plus a simple study plan to reach 900+ quickly.

What you already do well

  • Fighting spirit. You rarely give up and often keep looking for tactical chances until the end.
  • Piece-winning tactics. In several wins you spotted forks such as 18.Nc7+ (vs jidesigns) or 14.Ne6! (vs yeipipe95) and converted the extra material.
  • Time usage. You usually stay ahead on the clock. This is a real asset at your rating.

Main improvement areas

  1. Opening fundamentals
    • Many first moves like 1.e3, 1.d3 or 1.b3 are playable, but they surrender the centre.
    • On the Black side you often push g-pawns (…g5, …g6) before finishing development, leaving dark-square holes.
    Remedy: play “classical” set-ups for a while to build good habits (see Study Plan).
  2. King safety
    Almost every loss shows the same pattern: late castling + open king. Example: 1.d4 d6 2.e4 … 7…g5?! (loss vs defrimrex).
    Make it a rule: castle by move 10 unless you have a concrete reason not to.
  3. Blunder checking
    You and your opponents still hang pieces. Train yourself to ask “What changed?” after every move. A 5-second scan prevents most drops.
  4. Pawn structure discipline
    Early pawn storms (f- and h-pawns) cost you central control and squares. Develop first, attack later.

Quick study plan (4 weeks)

Weeks 1-2
  • Openings: as White play 1.e4 → aim for Italian (Bc4, Nf3, d3). As Black answer 1.e4 with …e5 & develop knights/bishops; vs 1.d4 play …d5.
  • Solve 15 tactical puzzles a day focusing on pins, forks, royal forks & back-rank mates.
  • After every game, replay it quickly and locate one missed tactic for each side.
Weeks 3-4
  • Endgames: learn king & pawn vs king and basic rook checkmate.
  • Start a “blunder checklist” journal. Write the reason for each lost piece (overlooked fork, undefended piece, etc.).
  • Play slower (15 | 10) games once a week to practise deep thinking.

Final tips

  • Before every move run a quick threat scan: “Checks, Captures, Threats” for both sides.
  • Only push wing pawns (a, h, f) when your king is safe and pieces are developed.
  • Enjoy experimenting, but anchor your play in the timeless principles of centre, development, king safety first.

Good luck, have fun, and see you at 900 soon!
