Suggestions for weak 2100 player

#8 That was a blindfold game... #9 Good point will do.. eventually.

Still though, anyone have analysis for a serious 2000+ opponent 15min+ game of mine?
Going through your games, #8 was the only serious one I found. Perhaps you could suggest a game for us to analysis. Might be able to use a 960 game, but a normal game would be better.
You lost all three games in the endgame.
I see that the three games you posted all have two attributes in common.

1. You resigned in each of these games. Resigning will lose the game.

2. You made pawn moves in each of these games. Pawns moved forwards can never retreat. Never move pawns if possible.
1: You let him steam roll you off the board on the king side. There wasn't much of a defense to this method; the queen side counterplay just isn't fast enough.
2: Nicely fought, but the space advantage on the queen side was the deciding factor. I couldn't do better myself.
3: Interesting. Except for tactical errors this was well played.
You seem to be okay until the endgame.
Only the first one was rated. 3...Bb4?? dude you have 20min on your clock. If you are out of book on move 3, you should spend more than 20 sec trying to figure out what's going on...
@tpr Good point. I do seem to really be bad at R endgames. I'll work on that sometime.

Thanks for the tips @jonesmh. :) I will try to work on whatever. ;)

@yafura I guess...

Thanks for the tips all!!
