Yes black needs to learn some opening principles no chess oscar for black for this performance.
Seriosity
Disgustingly funny.

What were the time controls? Although it's hard to imagine such a string of blunders from any experienced player...
Eebster
Wow. Every one of black's moves after 1. ... e5 was either bad or forced (except maybe 3. ... fxe5). That should be some sort of record.
Escapest_Pawn
I think that rather than expecting more blunders on the part of your opponent, you should have gone for 4Qh5+ winning immediately, even if he plays well from there.

Hey.. no need to show the poor guys name, thats just rude! (Unless he said that you can show it)
but interesting game :)
But hey, you gotta admit, this guy played better then the people who get scholars mated or fools mated
Gerik
interesting game, full of blunders certainly, but i wouldnt show the guys name on the diagram of the game. he/she might not like it.

don't be mean

If I played 4Qh5+ and he played g6, all I could have won would be a pawn after Nf6.
Huh? He doesn't get to make 2 moves in a row you know.
Thank you, NuclearT. It is really quite simple:
4Qh5+ g5 loses the rook but no worse than anything else note AntonyG's diagram (blue variation). The main line continues 9...Kd7 10 Qe6
5Qxe5+ Qe7 best shot for complications
6QxRh8 Nf6 trapping queen He can also play ...Qxe4+, but then can no longer trap queen as knight would be undefended.
7Bh6 threatens to exchange bishops and queens etc and I believe that is close to best play for black, and after a few tricky moments, white should be able to cruise to an easy game.

yes, 4. qh5 would have won faster.... see escapest pawn's analysis
mwaltenburg
Ya know, he might have been a new player that got his rating based on timeouts in previous games! Go easy on the guy, he might still be learning!
5 (1%)
I don't call this "learning"
LisaV
well, he goofed. so what. we all do.
not sure what the point of this thread is. if anything, you'd do well to heed the advice of escapist pawn, as you goofed too but got away with it.
Oh, right, I didn't realize he meant Nf6 then.

There are people with different expirience levels that have or haven't done much chess playing online. After all it is harder to stare at a computer chess board than to play a real game.
Interesting game. Please help.
