You're really playing some good chess my friend. Overall that was a very good game. Chess is hard! I don't want to criticize because I make silly mistakes all the time too. In this game you were playing so thoughtfully, really taking your time to work things out, but then you took with the pawn (instead of the knight) so quickly. For one move you just stopped thinking. That's a really useful learning point for you. Keep up the good play. You're way better than your rating if you can cut out the silly mistakes.

I have a lot of moments where my brain just stops working for a move. The next game is even worse 😂 you’re right though and I appreciate the feedback buddy!

Even worse in terms of having a move where my brain stops working

@@Redneckchessclub Just keep at it. You really do seem to be thinking better recently. You'll gradually make these kind of mistakes less and less. As long as you keep enjoying it, that's the main thing.

@@MarcusChapman-px6jq yea I think I’m doing much better the last week or two also. I’m hoping to ride that to 1500 and beyond. We shall see.
