Start of Division B life hits hard with a really solid display from AH. Really drawn out middle game abruptly ends and I find myself with only one route to winning with a potential Rook/Queen checkmate dashed when I blundered said rook. WP chief. Cheers mate. Was quite tight early on before I got pieces moving into attacking positions. Also AH13STU beat paakman01 in other week 1 game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curmudgeon Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 Board_stupid defeats Invergowrie by resignation. Went a piece up after pinning a bishop. The additional piece allowed me to get some extra pressure which was ultimately decisive. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aim Here Posted June 5, 2022 Share Posted June 5, 2022 Since it's near the halfway mark of the season already, is there anyone in the leagues NOT wanting to be put into the pool for the madwullie cup? Or anyone not in the leagues who wants to join in the Cup competition? For those new to the format, this is just a straight Scottish Cup-style knockout tournament, using Chess960 (i.e. there are randomized starting positions and castling rules to fit the format, but otherwise is still the same game) and will take 1-5 games depending on when you get knocked out. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aim Here Posted June 5, 2022 Share Posted June 5, 2022 (edited) In results news, Ziggy_The_Spider beat a blundertastic Division C calibre AimHere, the last move being a mate in one blunder which I sleepwalked into, after deciding on another one! Analysis suggests I should have won Ziggy's queen a few moves in Ziggy beats AimHere by resignation Edited June 5, 2022 by Aim Here 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curmudgeon Posted June 5, 2022 Share Posted June 5, 2022 Ziggy_The_Spider defeats Board_stupid by resignation. Edged out in this one, I couldn't see a way to either stop a pawn promotion or force a draw. I felt I didn't do too much wrong, but in this league you don't need to do much wrong to end up on the losing side. Well played, Ziggy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Despite being a pawn up I wasn’t sure if i was winning. There were a few times I thought I was taking too many risks trying to win. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
