What is discussed
AskMonty AI editorial noteSource consulted:
Without the usual lesson with Piscopo, Montemagno records several games to document his attempt to reach a 2000 online rating. Moving away from familiar openings makes him less confident but allows him to practice broader thinking. Between squandered advantages and wins gained through resignation or time, he separates results from improvement and reflects on the frustration involved in changing established habits.
Key points
- Unlearning habits that worked at one level can temporarily make playing harder.
- The games reveal difficulties with calculation, time management and converting advantages.
- Ratings and wins do not always reflect playing quality or learning.
