Subtemperate
Subby (white) vs Burnside (black) [winner]

Good game...you caught me be surprise very early...and I never got back into my game original.gif
BurnSide
Yeah that was an awesome game. I got right in there.

Saru
Saru (White) [Wins] vs Lottie (Black)

Good game thumbsup.gif

I think the best advice I can give you after that game is not to castle too early, it gave me a chance right from the word go to position my pieces ready to checkmate your King.
Lottie
Hey Saru

You really took me by surprise! Thanks for the tip hun...I will remember this for next time!

Great game even though it was very short...about 10 mins.lol!!!
BurnSide
Lottie, are we counting this as an actual game, even though it was intended as a practice match?

Cause, yanno, it's nearly been a month now. laugh.gif We'd be playing forever.
Lottie

Talon

Well played as always, I genuinely thought i'd got you there a few moves back until I realised I was in check.


Same here, I honestly thought I was dead when we were stocking all those officers against that knight. Very good game, that was close. I really enjoyed it thumbsup.gif
Saru
Well played thumbsup.gif

I actually tried to move the queen down to put you in checkmate, I had not accounted for the bishop putting me in check, I think I looked at every other possible move you could have made but I still somehow missed that one.

Talon (Black) [Wins] vs Saru (White)

Also good game DieByTheFlyGuy thumbsup.gif

It helps to play out every possible move on a chess board to get an idea of what to do. But don't use their Anylisis board, its terrible looking at it in 2D, but looking at a 3D board shows so much more. thumbsup.gif

I'd never really thought of doing that, I do have an old wooden chessboard somewhere I could use. Not sure i'd have the time to try that very often, but it might help to get out of a particularly tight spot.
Talon
You should try it thumbsup.gif , having a long hard look at a real board is the only reason I managed to win against yourself, Joc and Barman. Looking at a 2D board, you just miss far to much.

Janiel
Finally that game ended, it got streched about 4 days too long tongue.gif
BurnSide
4 days?
I'm still playing my practice match against lottie, which started on feb 20th!
BurnSide
SMEG.

I just lost against Sonofone, again, and the game had just started.

I thought i could get out of that spot by moving a pawn, but it didn't work.
DAMN THAT SUCKS.

Well, gg son, sorry it was so short. laugh.gif

Doesn't matter, its the enjoyment of playing that counts rather than who wins thumbsup.gif
gollum
Excellent game Saruman, I really thought that I had it in the bag, until you brought your queen into play.

Do you realise you could have mated me about 6 or 7 moves before you did?

Anyway, well played and thanks. thumbsup.gif
Saru
Well played thumbsup.gif

Once I had you in check I knew i'd be able to get there eventually, even though it was a bit long winded. laugh.gif
BurnSide
I have a couple games free, awaiting some challenges. thumbsup.gif
BurnSide
Darn, i didn't even see that coming at all! I thought i was doing pretty good. laugh.gif Oh well.

BurnSide (White) vs Thistle (Black) [Wins]
Thistle
Sorry Burnsey, I have to admit I didn't even realise it was mate myself until I made the move. Well played original.gif
BurnSide
hahah. laugh.gif I love it when that happens.

Oh, i won. Sweet!

I make a prediction, though it's not over.
Joc (black) {wins}
Dot (white) {dies a long slow painfull death}
joc

I am quite pained to inform all that I have trounced the dear Dot once again....most distressing, but such is the game of life....and chess.... hmm.gif

Ahem, I think what Joc meant to post there was

"Good Game Dot, well played it was fun"

wink2.gif

Let's keep a nice air of sportsmanship about this tourney shall we?

yes.gif
