If life is a game of chess, my position is mate in 1 (I'm about to lose) lol

I used to play that, I probably can still play.

Didn't really have anyone to play with plus I was playing video games more.

I'm a chess player but currently in the checkmate.

I do play chess from time to time. I played on chess.com, but I do not liked this website, so I started to play on lichess.

You can view a game study here:

I went through that game study. I liked the approach of the black in this variant of Sicilian. Black did not played accurately, but invited white for the trap between 15th and 21th move. White did bad decisions.

I am sorry, my account on lichess is not really anonymous, it contains few letters of my real name. Stupid mistake, I know that. I will post my anonymous account tomorrow. Today, I need to "recover" from what I just wrote here and do something which lifts up my mood.

That's the good old fate, but I want to at least have the chance to study more before playing.

I'm not bad. Definitely not the best opponent. I'm...meh.

You can PM me for my lichess account, if you want to play.

Thank you for the alert! I probably wouldn't have seen this thread otherwise.

Since you posted our game, I figured I'd try making a video commenting on it. Maybe some people will even be interested enough to watch it?

White did bad decisions.

Quite true.

I watched the video with your comments from your perspective.
I have not run any stockfish analysis or anything like that. I am "random amateur" :)
So this is just my opinion. I am doing always same mistakes )

You mentioned that you developed your pieces earlier than black.
That is true. But you did not utilize that. In many openings, black is underdeveloped and has to fight their way back.
Black has opened C file pretty quickly and all of his movements in the start were on Queen side.
Castling Queen side was in my opinion the first bad decision and after this, the mess was only cumulating.
Black has developed all of their pieces naturally in every defensive/offensive move afterwards.
You were too greedy in the middle :)
But it was really funny game.

You gave me a funny game watch. I am giving you a true madness to watch :-)

Madness!!!

Ocassional player, not a great one. Know some basic things but nothing particularly special (f.e. tactics for every opening). I haven't played in months for now.
