Here is a game that my brother fell for(He is only 6). See if it will work on anyone you know. It is exactly how we played it.
Why did Carter develop his rook in the opening?
Why am I?
I've beatin a 46 year old.
I think he is referring to the fact that you are playing a six year old and that perhaps more experienced players would not have fallen into the trap.
I on the other hand think it is fantastic that you are playing chess with your little brother and applaud your posting in that it is instructive to all beginners.
Amen to the last 2 posts. ColinH, good job fer taking part in the community and fer posting in the FUN WITH CHESS forum... it seems that a few members have fergotten that fact, what it is like to be learn chess and the excitement of shared community, that people are of all different ages, and fergotten their manners.
My dear ol ma used to say, "If ye can't say nothin nice, keep yer damn mouth shut!"
True, an older person would not fall for that.
Well Jayo,
Nineteen years old and no humility!
Better get that fixed before you head out into the jobs market, otherwise guys like me are waiting to harangue you at every opportunity.
Life is so sweet.
True.
its just a fool's mate there are lots of em
i once lost a game in 4 moves. scholars mate
i don't suppose it would work on someone else... because of the poor play by black and somwhat less poor play by white, but spotting mates would surely help a bunch of people... so it has some value... to your little brother, maybe he shall become a young pridogy! :)
