My games of the 2nd round - HivechessTournament, analysis and more

@sawko sawko sawko sawko, yeah this dude is back and it looks like he wants to take it all in this season. With an incredible score of 30 points and a high bersek rate he managed to win the 2nd round of the HIVE Friday tournament, an event organized by @stayoutoftherz.

39 players came to this tournament, I am impressed by how many players are joining this hive event each time. @tungphong is having a tough time and it looks like a strong opponent has finally arrived to face him. The fight continues but this time the Vietnamese player settles for second place.

@eniolw, as always in the first places keeps the chase and is waiting for one of the two favorites to fall, we already know that he has a great level and can produce good games against @sawko for example, in this tournament he could give a blow to the champion.

@cocacolaron still had a good tournament, he got the 4th place, and he keeps playing high level chess.

@wildthoughts ranked number 5 with 18 points and @jaki01 scored 17 points to rank sixth.

As for my performance it was much better than last week, with 17 points I placed in the number 7 position close to the leaders, I think I'm doing better playing on the phone xd. I'm still making adjustments in my studio so my desktop is still not available, I recorded all my games from the phone and well I think I play better, this was a 3+1 tournament the time was very short and with the phone is easier for me to make the pre moves.

Analyzing the most painful blunders

In this position against Mandeo I had the strong continuation 22)Bxh7 and the game would end quickly with a forceful attack, 22...)Kxh7 23)Qh5 and there is no salvation for Black, instead, I played 22)Bh6 with some similar attacking ideas but did not achieve much, however the game continued and ....

Total equality, but I played the horrible 32)Qh6??? and Black got mate, 32)Qxg2# :s

Against @tony1294I reached a very advantageous position in the dragon, I played my Yugoslavian attack with success but at this critical moment I failed in the calculation.

I played 22) Qxh5?? (curiously the move 22 same as in the previous game lol) and I thought I would win the piece, but this is a mistake because the white king is left without defense, according to the analysis the game is won with 22)Qxe7 a strange move but that contains a very interesting idea, for example, if 22...)Rxc3 then white plays 23)Rxg6+ Kh7 24)Rh6+ Kxh6 25)Qg5 Kh7 26)Qxh5+ and white just wins.

Well, another tournament, another day to keep learning and improving in chess.

See you tomorrow at the @schamangerbert tournament and on Sunday at the chess brothers league (@chessbrotherspro).
