  • My goals in this series are to 1) stay even or ahead of my opponents on the clock, and 2) trust my decision-making. Follow along as I try to avoid perfectionist tendencies and apply pressure with the ultimate equalizer in competitive chess: the clock! #Chess #BlitzChess #ClockAsAWeapon

    John, I consume a lot of YT content on various topics, and this series is my favourite BY FAR.
    Will you ever sell merchandise?

      Man, I sincerely appreciate that! This series is pretty raw; it's five games, and I post it no matter the result.
      Thanks for your interest in merch. Funnily you ask, because I'm in the preliminary stages of designing some, along with updating the channel in general (finally getting some proper thumbnails!). I'll be sure to share more on that in the coming months.
      Thanks again for your kind feedback and inquiry! Cheers

    Good fighting chess. Don't feel bad, John, that you didn't score any better. I believe all your opponents were higher rated, and you also had the substantial handicap of playing while streaming.

    (9:58 - 10:08) rather than retreating with the night, wasn't it better to try Nb5 with the idea of Nc6, where the Night would have a very nice outpost and be threatening a fork and putting pressure on f5?

      Oh, never mind, we go forth. 😊 As Danya said in one of his (apptly titled) recent streams, "even GMs blunder" 🙃
      Btw, not sure if you've read the comments on your recent stream with Danya? Several of us are propositioning to petition you to play some rapid games with Danya in a 15+10 time format. Now that'd be awesome! 🤩 They'd be super instructive! 😊
