ancientnoise Posted December 20, 2023 Share Posted December 20, 2023 Div A Round 13 ancientnoise (white) beats The_kid1433 by resignation. My opponent walked his queen into a trap, gave away a knight and then decided to throw in the towel. Thanks again to @the tungston weaselfor the game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pleslie99 Posted December 20, 2023 Share Posted December 20, 2023 Pleslie999 beats markf268 by checkmate not a classic but an enjoyable game. Marching my king forward was the only way I could see to win otherwise I was going to be trapped in the corner. It worked in the end. cheers for the game 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
