Playing Chess until I hit 2000: Day 192

#chess
This is day 192 of my journey to get to a rating of 2000 on chess.com.
In this game I the dutch defense against a Nimzowitsch-Larsen attack which I'm not familiar with at all! I got into a rough spot but thankfully was able to keep cool and beat my highest rated opponent on the series so far!
So far on the series:
139 wins 13 draws 113 losses

yeah you're definitely getting better. even when you don't make the best move, you've at least considered that move or had that same idea later. nice one mate

[@Blunder_Man]

Thanks brother! Definitely improved a little!

[@juliandeanmusic6746]

Good win bro!!! Glad to see the channel still active

[@Blunder_Man]

Where've you been these days brother? Haha, thanks!!

[@gaius68]

Good win Owen. Your opponent was playing the Nimzo Larsen Attack.

[@Blunder_Man]

Yes, and I didn't know what I was doing against it so I sort of went with a Dutch 😂😂

[@Troniix_]

Well deserved win 🙌

[@Blunder_Man]

Thanks Mr Troniix!

[@Lucan23]

Nice win. Typically the Dutch is only played against 1.d4, 1.c4 or 1.Nf3 though.

[@Blunder_Man]

Yes, was unsure what to play against this

[@gravitraxrocker]

Nice win, I'm happy to see you hitting your peak. I also got a new peak today of 1666.

[@Blunder_Man]

Cheers Big Man!

Is the Dutch gonna be your main weapon against d4 while your trying to get to 2000? Or are you going to switch it up at 1800. Because I rarely see a Dutch at 2000 as a Jobava player, but i used to play it so I think its still useable.
Also: If you can keep your rating at the 1700s for the next couple of days, I think its possible for u to finally achieve the 1800 level, if you push hard.

[@Blunder_Man]

@@Chess_Master60 yes it's gonna be my main attack! I'm really enjoying it, I think I've improved at it and I understand it a lot more than I used to

[@KerTon4]
