You might also take a few days for a well deserved break, before you delve into those games. Do something else that you enjoy and then come back to the game. Just don't take a break for too long. You need to 'get back onto the horse' and ride after you have brushed yourself off a bit. A few wins under your belt and your confidence will return quickly. Just look at any loss as an opportunity. |

Message: A few years afterwards, I changed my strategy to going over games with some of my friends, since they were at or near master level and were a good resource. I started playing a few blitz games with them, and then when I inevitably lost we went over the game move by move. Seeking guidance from more experienced people is probably the best way to go. |

Short had recently changed his phone and had switched it off but was undone when the device ran low on power and gave out a fatal warning.

There was another bonus for the former FIDE chess champion as he moved to number one on the unofficial live rating list. I was able to witness the innovative arrangements first hand at the Plaza de Nuevo which hosted a unique chess festival for ...
