@canberranchessguy said ^

I am playing the biggest tournament of my life in January and im feeling good about my chess. My OTB rating is close to 1650, i just reached 1850 chess.com and i am coming of the back of a really good otb performance. In January i am fortunate to be going to the Australian Junior chess championships, and i have 4 months till then, do you guys know what to study? I am not really worried about blund...

bro, just master in the openings you know, and if you study some endgames from lichess or chess.com, I think you'll be ready, you should solve puzzles too, and you can do training in Chess Tempo and Chessreps, in my last OTB, I trained with friends and I have a book which has puzzles in it. If you have a book like it, you can train with it too.

  • You should be.

I laughed.
