Cardinal Richelieu Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 And yes, he fucked me. And not in a take me out to dinner and get me pished on wine type fucked me. I took his e-pawn (that sounds wrong). He moved his rook to E8 (or is it E1) ... Queen has now been ravaged and we're minutes away from a resignation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Practically begging me to take his pawn as if nothing bad will ever happen. Unfortunately, I can't see the bad thing that's going to happen so I'm going for it. That trap goes down as my favourite ever chess moment. Felt like a king when I came up with the ploy. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cardinal Richelieu Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 Tbf, he is in the top league and if Frank made the leagues based on everyone's self assessment, we'd be looking at about 20 teams in the lowest tier. Still, it looks like I'm losing my other match as well which makes me 1 from 4 and a likely relegation candidate. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stellaboz Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 Gordon beats mackieboz in a game where we both threw it away I felt until I fucked up big time.Got out of an early sticky situation and had him against the ropes without the final knockout punch, then lost concentration playing cards with some friends at the same time. Felt like I had it but just lost focus.Well done sir, unlike the Pars I'm not blaming the wind! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the aggressive beggar Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 Well, I think I claim the title of most embarrassing defeat. Gcarlos is going to be pishing himself laughing when he gets back to the game to see what I've done. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had you on toast and then I went for a cheap checkmate with my arse hanging out. From there I'm sure you could have forced a checkmate or at least taken my queen but you let me off the hook. Even then, I traded queens for absolutely no reason when I should just have taken your queen with something else. I don't think there were any winners from that game. I managed to fk this position up: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordon EF Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 (edited) Unusual but evenly placed game at the moment between me and @arab_joe. The sort of game where you feel like you're only a couple of moves away from victory or defeat at any given moment. Just checking the board at it looks mental. arab_joe looks like his strategy is to line up all his pieces on the 2nd and 3rd rank and and mine is just to randomly scatter them all over my half of the board.
