  1. MrScribbles (4...cxd4) Go rookbird! Sorry ehgolden :)
  2. glbert go ehGolden!
  3. glbert sorry rookbird.
  4. rookbird Hi MrScribbles
  5. MrScribbles (5.Nxd4) hey glbert
  6. MrScribbles (5.Nxd4) and hey rookbird
  7. MrScribbles (5.Nxd4) Go glbert! Sorry mrscribbles
  8. glbert hi mrscrabble
  9. MrScribbles (5.Nxd4) If we were a weird fanfic pairing our name would be scribblert
  10. MrScribbles (5...Nf6) glbbles
  11. MrScribbles (5...Nf6) Ope glbbles sounds like... something so not that
  12. ehGolden 5...Nf6 ok im on my own from now on, my study of the french has never been that serious, we'll see how it goes
  13. ehGolden 7...Nc6 lets try not to die in the next 10 moves
  14. glbert sounds good to me
  15. glbert huh. the master data base gives 7...Nxe5.
  16. Asturc0n (8) Go Rookbird!
  17. glbert to which most masters replied 8.Nxe6. :nootlikethis:
  18. lc69 Ah Nxe5 and then Qh4+ cool
  19. ehGolden 8...Qb6 sorry french bishop, don't cry just yet
  20. Fritzsword Go Rookbird!!!
  21. rookbird Hey Asturc0n and Fritzsword
  22. ehGolden 9...Nc5 im going to e4
  23. ehGolden my team is probably already looking for eye bleach
  24. rookbird If only I had the ability to commentate every move like the great lc69
  25. glbert as someone who very rarely plays the french, i think this is fine.
  26. glbert though i would be kind of worried how quickly the white pieces might target h7.
  27. glbert then again, i always seem to try to find a reason not to castle.
  28. glbert i think i'd play 12...Nx.
  29. ehGolden tactic time ?
  30. ehGolden i think it doesnt work actually...
  31. ehGolden wait wat
  32. Asturc0n (13) Bc5???
  33. rookbird Only way I saw to avoid the skewer.
  34. rookbird Oh good Lord
  35. glbert huh
  36. glbert i would have picked the other skewer.
  37. glbert castling is always a mistake, you heard it here first.
  38. ysgwydd I prefer this skewer
  39. glbert with the white Q off the board, i will be less worried about castling for black.
  40. glbert i feel with white though. it's so annoying to see one skewer and at the same time fall for a different one.
  41. MrScribbles (15.Nxd4) very tough stuff
  42. glbert it's worse when it's basically the same tactic.
  43. glbert it's a bit more bearable when you avoid a fork to fall for a skewer.
  44. MrScribbles (15.Nxd4) But it's opposite colored bishops, so you can joke about drawing in the chat while you lose. So that's a plus.
  45. glbert there's still a N. with a N, you always have a chance.
  46. glbert need to get out of the pin though so the N can actually move.
  47. MrScribbles (15.Nxd4) Sure. Might as well play on.
  48. MrScribbles (15...O-O) Black winning this game will draw the match, so game 8 decides everything.
  49. glbert if black wins.
  50. glbert it's nice that game 8 is on board 8.
  51. MrScribbles (16.Kh1) that's very kind of you glbert :D
  52. MrScribbles (16.Kh1) It should be a league rule that you schedule your games in order of board. Board 1 goes first, board 2 second, and so on.
  53. glbert worse positions have been turned around by a N.
  54. MrScribbles (16.Kh1) If board 1 has a Monday commitment it's also permissible to do reverse order.
  55. MrScribbles (16.Kh1) OK, this is obviously totally hopeless. But we might as well have some practice with swindle attempts. What are the principles?
  56. MrScribbles (16.Kh1) -Avoid trades
  57. MrScribbles (16.Kh1) -Close the position
  58. MrScribbles (16.Kh1) -Move slow and hope your opponent's fire alarm goes off
  59. glbert -place the N somewhere annoying.
  60. ehGolden 16.Kh1 is f6 the simplest way forward now ?
  61. glbert f6 makes some sense.
  62. glbert i guess.
  63. glbert though that puts the N in a great position.
  64. MrScribbles (16.Kh1) No ehgolden, Qc6 is a good principled move. Attacks the weak c3 pawn, White has to block in their LSB to stop it.
  65. MrScribbles (16.Kh1) Landing our Knight on d6 would be great but I don't see how.
  66. glbert yeah. right now d6 would be a nice square.
  67. ysgwydd All rook games are drawn, that's the saying right?
  68. glbert but if black plays f6, i am happy with d4 i think.
  69. ehGolden looks fine to me
  70. MrScribbles (16...f6) in bullet you would play Be3 and leave it there for like 20 moves then pounce
  71. glbert i would do the same thing in 4545.
  72. MrScribbles (16...f6) Yeah might as well.
  73. glbert setting up discoveries with my B behind my N is my thing.
  74. MrScribbles (16...f6) Problem is Be3 probably forces Rook trades after fxe5.
  75. MrScribbles (16...f6) But a bishop-Knight battery is very principled
  76. glbert ok, what's the alternative? if you want to avoid R-trades you probably have to move the R right now.
  77. MrScribbles (16...f6) Yep, that's exactly what I would do.
  78. glbert well, i guess.
  79. MrScribbles (16...f6) Moving the rook is dumb and stupid and dead lost, but everything is dumb and stupid and dead lost.
  80. Silkthewanderer (16) Go Golden
  81. glbert if i'm black, i trade pawns, put my R on f4 and just exchange it for the N probably. that N is the last piece that can prevent my triumph.
  82. MrScribbles (17.Be3) Realistically, White just needs to make this game last as many moves as possible and hope for some horrific mouseslip.
  83. glbert horrific blunders are more common than horrific mouseslips. so i hope for the former. also feels better.
  84. MrScribbles (17...Qd8) Sure, a horrific blunder wouldn't hurt either.
  85. glbert for example, all i need black to do right now is:
  86. glbert 1. move the B. 2. move the R. 3. move the K to f8. and i'm golden.
  87. glbert yes, yes. maybe if i exchange the R on f8, black will take back with the K.
  88. glbert and then i blunder some pawn for the B to take.
  89. glbert noooo.
  90. ehGolden should not be too many ways to make a mess of this now, i got what i wanted from f6
  91. rookbird Hope it's OK that I am playing on. Even a draw helps my team so I'm trying to give a good effort until it looks totally hopeless
  92. glbert it already looks totally hopeless, but i would play on too.
  93. glbert there's a N after all.
  94. glbert and as black, i would go after that N hard.
  95. glbert good game.
  96. ehGolden damn i missed 7...Nxe5, ok that happens, abit embarassing though
  97. ehGolden its the reason i played Nfd7 too
  98. ehGolden shaking my head
