Nothing more complicated than a few games of bullet chess to end the day after a hard day at work.I've been having some difficult times in my life that have caused me to drop my chess game a bit on many occasions.I'm not as sharp as I used to be, but I think I've noticed that the less I play, the less I understand the board.

My relationship with cooperative games isn't very good; I'm not good at following instructions or making sure another person keeps up with me.So you can imagine, a game like this that forces players to cooperate would be a nightmare for me.

It seems like a joke, but it's true that as the years go by, cognitive and competitive skills are increasingly declining. I feel like I'm losing a good part of my competitive gene in chess.I tried it at a tournament today in the classic team league I participated in. There were all kinds of players, but especially players of my level.

I don't usually do second parts but I think that this last chess tournament that took place on Friday is more than interesting to make an analysis of how we are doing at the halfway point of the hivechess seasonThis season is certainly much more contested than the last one that passed and not only that but we have a handful of players who are quite superior to me in the rating and right now in the standings

Did you know that the best way to advance in your chess is to study the openings a lot and then do a lot of puzzles and shape your mind to solve puzzles of this type on the board?It's trueI myself, in my student days when I had time to reread the books, used a lot of the problems in the back of the book to entertain myself all afternoon and increase my mental agility in these cases

When the week ends there is always something left to do after work and that is to play the weekly tournament of the community's favorite game seasonLast time was a bit complicated and I couldn't even score among the top 10 but this time I arrived early and sat at the computer to wait patiently to play
