Great game. Really good game. For a second I also thought that you'd turned the game on its head, but it didn't quite happen. Looking forward to the return fixture. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

101 Posted May 17, 2021 Share Posted May 17, 2021 HGP falls to Board Stupid by resignation due to me holding on to capture his queen but when the chance of that faded it was the kindest thing to do to the boys. Enjoyable opening exchanges and 2 mistakes tipping the balance and BS' talent shine through. Good game sir. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trogdor Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 Division A Round 9 Result Dearyme beats Bri1962 by resignation. A queen's gambit accepted here. Bri nabbed the pawn and hung onto it for dear life. Although he sacrificed some development to keep it meaning I stole a bit of a charge down the centre. His King unable to castle took a step toward the Rook. Then unfortunately Bri duffed his Queen when playing moves at 7 in the morning! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it was the knight move instead of castling that done me, when you brought your rook down it was all over at that point. Well played.

Yeh top tip for anyone in chess, don't move your queen in a diagonal space next to a pawn it's not smart. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You clearly did the research that you said you would, I may have to mix up my moves a bit! 4 wins in a row, went from mid-table mediocrity to promotion challenging! Turning things around. If McPake can do it then so can I. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richey Edwards Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 NotThePars beats RicheyEdwards by checkmate. Maybe not a game for purists with a few gaffes being made, but an enjoyable game to participate in nonetheless. Both of us were one move away from victory at different points in the game. However, NotThePars eventually got the win by checkmate, while taking most of my pieces in the process as I threw caution to the wind chasing the chance to snatch the victory from under his nose. The grand finale was the ol' Dancing King routine being wheeled out for the first time ever in the P&B chess league. However, this was just for comedy value as defeat was inevitable for me at that point. Good game, and good luck in your other fixtures. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
