How My Late Night Bullet Grinding Has Gone Wrong
Have you ever tried to grind your rating online, but failed miserably? Well, as you can probably see on the thumbnail,, I tried to do some late night bullet "grinding", and attempted to gain some ELO points for my bullet rating. And today, we will talk about how "nice" this experience was for me... The time was May 1st, 9:00 PM, and I decided to hop on a video call with my friend @electrosaw and do some bullet grinding.
Since it's bullet chess, I will not annotate the full game, but choose a critical moment of the game. If you wish to view the full game, that's no problem. But be alert, watching my games can lead to serious brain damage and severe loss of your precious brain cells. Other than that, enjoy my "epic fails"

Game 1:


I am known for my incredible slowness in bullets, however, I am also known for my incredible dominance in Positional chess and endgame grinds. Therefore, I thought winning the game in such a position is as simple as eating a cake....

Game 5:
One can write a WHOLE BOOK on all my failures. You might think that after I played all these games I would chuck my computer out the window and never play chess EVER again.
But it's a mark of great players that they try to recover from their fails. After re-regaining focus, I tried again. And to my surprise I won 6 games and got back all my lost rating points.
The Lesson? Every good player has the ability to come back from fails.
Congratulations! You have made it the end! Any questions, comments, feel free to leave it below.
