Great video, Paul. Win against the 2430 was smooth!
Thanks 👍checking after the event that win - which may well be down to opponent using bezerk mode - but a win is a win - it is my 5th best ever win by opponents rating in blitz on lichess. I do have some higher rated on chess.com as well though. traditionally I play most of my blitz on chess.com and most of my bullet and rapid on lichess - to share my time a bit between the sites. but even just these few hundred points higher rated, the games get a lot harder.
Please do more of this 🙏🏻
thank you. these mega team battles take place on a friday evening, uk time, every 2 weeks normally. they alternate the time control, typically between 5 - 0, like this one, 3 - 0 and 3 + 2. used to be a bullet time control but I think they must have dropped that as not seen it for a long while. for anyone not aware of the mega team battles, you select which team you want to play for and whoever the top 20 scorers for each team are, you simply add their points together to make the team score.
15:15 *17.d5* looks like a strong move. Black can't play *17...Nb8* because of *18.Qa8.*
