    Here I had a very strange game that I won.  it contained many mistakes but its an odd yet interesting game to look at none the least.

    It doesn't really matter here, as you were up in material and had a winning attack. Very questionable play by your opponent, complacent at best. Nice way to benefit.

    I don't think so, but here they were useful, a wall to block ur opponents defence

    If you win a pawn,they are good,but you must defend them from attacks.

    There's a opening you must see.

    A good white player shouldn't take the c5 pawn, instead should create chances on the Kingside while Black plays on the Queenside

    Trippled pawns make a block, like a rook, but they are very weak alone from rear and front side. :)

    I know they're rarely a good thing.  but in this game they served some purpose.

    I beleive that in England, tripled pawns  are known as an "Irish Pawn Center"
