Saru 8,153 #205 Posted March 19, 2005 Saru (White) [Wins] vs Lottie (Black) Good game 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.

BurnSide 7 #207 Posted March 19, 2005 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. We'd be playing forever. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Talon 6 #215 Posted March 20, 2005 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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Saru 8,153 #216 Posted March 20, 2005 Well played 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 Diebytheflyguy (Black) vs Saru (White) [Wins] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But don't use their Anylisis board, its terrible looking at it in 2D, but looking at a 3D board shows so much more. 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Talon 6 #219 Posted March 20, 2005 You should try it , 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Diebytheflyguy 6 #220 Posted March 20, 2005 Also good game DieByTheFlyGuy Diebytheflyguy (Black) vs Saru (White) [Wins] 534044[/snapback] I just noticed the checkmate. Good game Saru, you had me running the whole time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
