**“If you’re serious about improving at chess… STOP playing Bullet! ♟️🚫”**

One of the biggest mistakes I see players make is spending too much time playing **Bullet chess**.

Fast games can be fun, but if your goal is to **improve your calculation, decision-making and understanding**, you need to give your brain time to think. 🧠♟️

🎯 **Don’t just play more chess. Play the right kind of chess.**

A moment from our **90 Day Rated Player Challenge** session with FM Isuru Alahakoon

Are you guilty of playing too much Bullet? 👀
