Chapeau! Yes, but if you count my first attempt as me trying as the first move checking with the knight which was illegal as I'd not spotted it pinned by the queen it was on my second go I managed to solve it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trogdor Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 Division A Round 11 Result Dearyme defeats Invergowrie via resignation. The tactics always seemed to favour me in this one and I was always a tempo or two ahead. Good game @invergowrie arab 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They love a Queen sac in daily puzzles. But to follow it up with a rook sac is cruel. Edited December 3, 2023 by DeeTillEhDeh 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't see that coming (the repetition call) but yes, it did feel it was heading that way (from my perspective, at least). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Other Foot Posted December 5, 2023 Share Posted December 5, 2023 Dandies1983 beats Dustysghost by resignation. Felt like a very close game for the most part, until Dandies got the upper hand in the closing stages and I hung on for an unreasonably long amount of time when I should have just resigned and got it over with. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N5 Spur Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 Division B, Round 14 redVtop / @Caro-Kann defeats N5 Spur by resignation. I thought I'd be smart bringing my queen into the attack... first move of this morning proved that the wrong thing to do but the (short) game was heading only one-way, anyway. Well played, and good luck in your promotion battle. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
