I was so depressed when I was stuck around 1700 range for the longest time and posted to forum in May of 2021. Really happy to see some improvements after almost a year. Still a long way to go!

PS: the following game is defy not my best just 72% accuracy, guess that happens when you play at 2:30 am, lol

pretty good stuff.  It looks like white was going for checkmate and failed while you were going for promotion.

Right, I saw the lines and I was coming out at the cost of the knight though, but worth it in the end

When you wrote this post, I stuck around 1800. I told you that it was insane. And I thought it is impossible for me. But now I'm close to 2100 and beat a player with 2229. I learned gambits and practiced more. Nothing is impossible.
