First time I have such a bad tournament since I re-started to play OTB chess...

For the round 3, I'm facing a 7 years old kid. I noticed him he played fastly and was losing very badly his first two games...

Hopefully I won the last game easily.

Hard to continue after such a bad game in R1...

Here's game from R2. I was White and it's not my style to sacrifice piece but here I thought I had a tactic but failed miserably...

Worst, here I lost on time whereas opponent blundered a piece and was winning... 😔

First game already finished... I played horribly... 😭😭😭 That's not a good start 🤦

Here as Black I blundered something very obvious...

What is your best official OTB miniature you've played ? Here's mine against a 1661 player before the rating increase that happened in 2024.

I was surprised he didn't know this trap in the Caro-Kann, but more than that, I was surprised he missed this mate in 1 😱
