When I Score An Upset

I have done it too but it seems like it's usually the other way around. Picking up 25 point from 212 to 247 beats losing 25 points the point is that I made an upset against an opponent rated in the 1400's and I will take it I might have caught him half asleep although my going into the game with a feel for a win wasn't overwhelming in fact I've been stalling for days waiting for the right feel to play with enough zest rather than merely going through the motions. True it takes practice but like I said earlier in this blog I like Magnus Carlsen's approach to chess and that is play chess when you are in the mood and not with some sort of discipline and ordered life whether you want to play chess or not. You should want to play chess rather than forcing yourself to do so. A power nap might suit me well at this time.
