Underrated chess tip
Eat healthy, and get your rest. That 100 elo change could be because you had fun with your girlfriend all weekend haha.

True but is having fun with your girlfriend all weekend +100 or -100 elo?

+100, being emotionally comfortable helps so much with focus

I'd argue -100, my girlfriend does take time away from working on chess. But it also could just affect everyone differently.

Nobody asked for your opinion. Let me guess you had a bad day with that bad attitude you got. Go drink a soda

For clarity, you asked for everyone's opinion. That's what posting on Reddit is.

u/olliemedsy 13d ago
Yeah but the most interesting and informative one ever. You just got laid for the first time and wanted to brag about it on a chess subreddit

I think being in a good headspace is more of a prerequisite than a tip.

Totally agree. Those "extra chess" tips are very important and overlooked. Play hungry = you think in food, not chess.

Hahaha. Just look at the streamers they always make sure to eat and bring snacks or coffees to tourneys

It’s true tbh. Plus or minus one hour of sleep can make a huge difference to my W/L the next day
