Activation

It is all too often this activation. My opponent was like 3 wins to 7 loses. I thought I'd have a chance this time for a win. If I didn't checkmate my next move opponent would have had me checkmated. Other players and all levels say they get the jitters as well. Reading this blog is not for those who want to relax. I can relax now and take a rest from the stress and strain of the emotions. A tennis match would even more so mentally as well as physically exhausting or wearing more so than chess. I'm taking a break. I can see where those Vietnam veterans coming back from the war or any war for that matter could become mental cases from the hell.
