The Make Or Break Game: Prelude
Tomorrow, I will be playing in what I think will be a make or break game for achieving Class B status this year. The person I will most likely play is rated 1747.
On the plus side, I have beaten him before, although it was only once.
On the minus side, he is higher rated (with LOTS of OTB experience), and he plays queen pawn games (and I will most likely have the black pieces against him).
So, tonight, I am skipping ju-jitsu practice for chess study. I will drill with CTS as my main focus, with some opening study against queen pawn games.
The way I have it calculated my rating will finish out this month in one of 3 ways:
Win 1608 (and Class B - 2005 goal achieved)
Draw 1575 (with the possibility of achieving 1600 in December)
Lose 1542 (with a slim possibility of achieving 1600 in December)
I will analyze and post the game after tomorrow's battle.
Tonight...I prepare for war....
