[Guest]

as im involved ina game, id like to say it looks about equal all round, only some are more equal to others.......

any takers for the contenders next games?

 

[Guest]

h2 - h3

 

[GMT]

do you mean h7-h6? Kings pawn forward one? Remember to count backwards as well as spell backwards lol.

 

[Guest]

yeah u got it - this is getting worse. I think I'm zoning out.

H7 - h6 is what I meant.

Backward notating when you're stoned. Jeez. Bagsy white next time.

 

[GMT]

lol, yeah no worries, i'm gonna tape the numbers and letters to the board for my go.
let me know again like last night when you make your last move so i'm not hanging about mate. I'll go a7xb7

 

[Guest]

Will do mate - no probs.

OK - so - let's get this right - my queen on e5 x your pawn on g3.

Half expecting to have this all around back to front now.

 

[GMT]

yep, I've been expecting that, my quuen on b7 takes your pawn on d5

 

[Guest]

my queen on g 3 takes your knight on e1

 

[GMT]

D1 king retreats to c2

 

[Guest]

e1 - d1 checkmate.

 

[GMT]

shit, I was just about to get rid of that pawn. Well played mate, beat me fair and square. I spent too much time pissing around with that knight early in the game.

 

[Guest]

Cheers for the game ol 'chap and being patient with my muddled stoned ways. Can't have helped your concentration on your own game.. so apologies for that.

Yeah your knight caused me a fair few problems in the beginning and the bishop to b2 caused me to change the game plan so at that stage I thought your pieces were looking good...

I thought you could have left iyour knight on b5 though - would have caused me more probs than on a3.

Anyway - thanks again.

 

[GMT]

my biggest mistake was not dropping my castle from b2 to b1 instead of taking your pawn on b7. that would have forced you to take my knight on e1 with your castle and forced you to check on c1 rather than d1 giving me the b3 escape route. Unless I could get rid of your pawn on e4 it was always over. Well played, happy to have a rematch in reverse colours if you dont think my challenge far too easy to bother with lol.

 

[GMT]

actually when I moved my knight from b5, i was circleing back for your queen, but never got there

 

[Guest]

No not at all mate. That could have easily gone to the wire.

When do you want the rematch?

Dropping the rook down was needed. I can't remember why you put it there?
