LiChess game against Stockfish.

Novag Citrine Game

 I want to play some test games against the Novag Citrine. I set it to look only 5 ply deep. So we both made mistakes. I made the last one. Still I got what I wanted. An unexpected game to test my ability to play the Modern Defense. I did ok and will learn from the loss. 

Chess.com personality Xavier (1900)

My victory over Xavier the 1900 rated Chess.com bot. I'm trying to work my way through all the Advanced computer personalities. Two crowns signifies a friendly (casual) game. Three crowns is for tournament conditions.

A Tough Draw On Chess.com Goodbye 2020

 A tough game that ended in a draw by repetition. The same position 3 times. On New Years Eve 2020.

Chess.com Jonas

 

I admit it took me four games to beat this computer persona. In my defense I was just blitzing the moves to make a quick game of it. Jonas is rated by Chess.com at 1700. More like 1500 I think. Still a tough opponent for me. 

Rooks vs Rook & Bishop Endgame

Pulling Victory From The Jaws Of Defeat!

I've been on a bit of a losing streak lately. Being locked in the house. I've increased my activity on Chess.com. I've been playing a little reckless at times. In the following game I sacrificed a Bishop on move 19. Followed by a Knight on move 21. Actually the Knight was more of a trap than a sacrifice as I mated my opponent on the next move. I needed this win to make sure I finished in the top three of my first round group. To make it to round two.
