misdirection opportunity

    I have played about 1,000 games on Chess.com so far and this one is the one that I played best, in my opinion. Although computer analysis hated it (2 inaccuracies and 2 BLUNDERS listed), it was a human game with a blitz time control after all.
    The best moment for me (other than the ultimate mate) was at move 13 when my opponent's move allowed me to take advantage of an opportunity that I had set up, but was reluctant to make the last set-up move due to it being too obvious....see if you know what I was thinking at around moves 11, 12, 13.....then read my explanation in the PGN notes.

    I think you're chosing "diagram" when you should be chosing "game or sequence of moves".

    Just watched your game. Your opponent broke allotof chess rules. Move 5 was when he developed his first piece. Before that all pawn moves. When you push pawns the squares behind are weakened. Footholds for your berzerker queen later. Then he moves the same piece 3 times. He is so behind in development that even your mouse fart with the bishop doesn't even hurt you! At move 11 he moves the kt a fourth time! At move 14 he develops his second piece? To little too late. By that time he should have been castled and drinking his second beer. He deserved the butt kicking. Good job.

    You really rained on my parade, but saved it with your last 2-word sentence...

    But, really, how do you expect a "patzer" like me to win with a mating net that starts around 10 moves in unless his opponent helps out a lot.

    Someday, maybe I will even win one from you...something that has eluded me thusfar    Yell.
