    I just recently had my best personal victory.  Player rated over 2200.  During the game I ended up having 2 Queens and was ready to have a third, but he resigned. 

    It was played down at a local coffee house, 3 hours on the time clock.  I gave a few variations, but would love some analysis/feedback on the game.

    Wow, seems like he was willing to speculate a bit too much for a game as long as 3 hours.  No offense or anything, but seems like he was going all or nothing -- the problem with heading for the position that arises after move 16 isn't the material, but the development, white is clearly winning out of the opening.

    No I agree.  I think it was just a standard under-estimation of his opposition.  He didn't respect my ability enough to be concerned with his major lack of development.  I 100% agree that he played the opening with little thought and that was really where the game was won.

    Another wow from me towards his insistence on continuing the game, I think it's way off limits of proper chess ettiquette. He has a pretty resignable position at move 23 already!

    Well played!

    Thanks man.  I agree he could have resigned earlier, but if he had I wouldn't have had been able to make move 33!

    I beat a master at my club once.  He kept looking away and chatting between moves -- he did it so much I eventually got a winning position.  He started paying attention then, but it was too late.  I was the only one to beat him that night Cool even though he crushed me two games in a row earlier.
