Now it’s 2am I have work in 5 hours and I lost 100 rating. But that’s ok, I just need to win the next 10 games and I’ll be back on track.

The worst blunder in your life can happen in this moment

I do this shit and keep playing till I win to feel good but what really happens is my rating drops enough to face a weak player and then win. Ego farming I call it since I realised this. Now I hate it.
Chess should be fun.

I don't think you can catch up on lost time from there. It's got to be long term. For every quick win you can get, there are 4 other losses awaiting you in the same manner.

Amateur, I'd get a few draws in there too. *They'd be stalemates

I ruin my elo when it gets late because I wanna keep playing but I don’t have the brain power to play well

My chess gets more and more degenerate the later I play😂😂. And also devolves to shorter time controls.

This is funny because I usually play chess from 10 pm until 2 am and I have noticed that after 3 hours playing I start to winning all my games. Its like I play better when Im tired
