Interesting, they should be aware in advance that they’re likely to play me (I’m almost always board 1) so there’s the opportunity to do some targeted prep, but I’m not convinced they actually do!
Do you find people prepare specifically against you? You’re stronger than I am but in my local league I play people 2000 to IM and honestly have never got the sense of significant individualised prep.
Normally it’s fine but this was a bit unfortunate! (actually should still have won the game but messed up much later)
Funny mouseslip in a blitz game - originally was going to go 0-0, then decided on Rc1. But my king was still selected so 0-0-0 appeared on the board when I dragged the rook across!
They changed it - I suspect you’re pretty much exactly right as to what happened!
They changed it!

In your game I guess Bc2 is amusing?
I played a perfectly decent game against a 2000+ opponent on Monday, got to an ending with R+B+4 vs R+B+3, probably a draw with best play but only I could play to win. 3 minutes plus 10sec increment on the clock, hung a rook…
Yeah I get that - it just comes across wrong in translation!
Given you’ve posted it I assume e2 Bxe2?

I hope you, like me, are being very liberal handing out Morphy 5s to your opponents! 😀
