Someone took me down in twelve moves. 
I think i read someones post on here that you should never play once you get angry. Must have been really angry that day!
Anyone had a worse run than this?

Never quite that bad, but I've had some bad runs of things lately. I found slowing down and playing a few long games helped break the funk. I really don't think you learn too much in blitz and it can give you some bad habits. That said, if you want to improve blitz some solid tactics training would go a long way.

Yeah thats good advice. Started playing a 48h a turn game yesterday. Might give blitz a miss while i'm playing that and study some more tactics.

I lost the first tournament game I ever played in eight moves.
When i start playing tournaments. I'll let you know how i go!
Well i made it through to the second round of the tournament i started. However entered into some others and i am getting a bit of a thrashing. Still i am 15 from eighteen i think which is better than getting belted 88% of the time in blitz...
chess is a pure mind game.
I lost 9 games in a row. I think i've lost something like 22 in 25 games. A tiny bit discouraging, but amusing all the same. Anyone else this bad? i play blitz 5 0.
