The 1 reason why you lose games that you couldโ€™ve won
Ok, you know when you were suddenly winning (e.g. winning material EXCEPT MATE), then you got too overconfident? Well, hereโ€™s the mistake, you got overconfident when youโ€™re winning and then started singing โ€œopponent is trash! x3โ€ or whatever. But being overconfident turns deflects your attention on the game away, then you started blundering pieces or getting mated. How to fix this? Itโ€™s simple, do not get too happy when you were winning, try to stay calm until youโ€™ve won the game. This is about your emotions that affects your game.

Great psychological advice! My favorite phase in my first 1.5 years of playing chess (900-1900 USCF) was "I was winning" ๐Ÿ˜‚

Tricky Opening Puzzle - White to Move! ๐Ÿคฏ
This was from one of my own games! Turns out that many really strong players (2400+) have also missed this concept. Can you find the right idea?
