This is my experience as well. Occasionally I get lucky against stronger players and gust into the 1900's here (and almost always in a King's Indian formation with either color, it seems), but I usually turn into Robin Hood and pass the points along to someone below me in short order!

I know this may be a tired subject (of equivalent ratings and also impossible to speculate). Also, sorry for all the list of info below. I am not being egocentric but just curious from you guys that do both RHP and OTB, what a [b]RHP 1850 rating might equate to OTB rating.

For background, I just renewed my USCF membership which expired in 1993 and ...[text shortened]... games in progress.

Any guess what my OTB rating range will be. I was guessing OTB 1650-1700.[/b]
I think your "guess" regarding ratings is pretty accurate.
