The story of a cute little trap (I didn't even know I was setting) in the Petroff... 

it seems nobody is immune - especially at three minute blitz.

It's like Bobby Fischer said - in chess, today I give you a lesson, tomorrow you give me a lesson. All in good fun :-)

he would have seen it if he has given a 5 sec or so ..problem is he wants to justify his move Qd4 ..or may be he is not used to this opening

That's quite a dangerous pawn to take, with my pieces developed like that... the B at c5, the central N

Of course, it's 3 min blitz, and if you don't see an immediate refutation (it isn't THAT easy to see after all), then it does make sense to take such a pawn, in order to provoke your opponent, threaten a Q exchange, offset the impending loss of the f2 pawn...

I've seen people make comparable blunders also in 120 minute time control games (I speak about people rated in the FIDE 1800s), so more time isn't always a medicine...

<Sirfatticus> of course you're right - but there's absolutely nothing wrong with it. 

In chess, traditionally you publish games with the opponent's name - and as a qualified, if somewhat advanced afficionado of the game, or amateur, or even 'patzer' - I have no problem with people publishing my own chess "boo-boo"s as they happen and appear...

I also lose my share of games in ridiculously small numbers of moves... all in good sports and good laughs. I'm never that serious about either winning or losing (but drawing does get me fuming on occasion!)

Centralized, as in a bull's eye

 Nice game! Your opponent breaking opening principles is the cause of his doom.  He miss your knight capture with check and drop a queen by force. Opening principles is a guide line and more time you can question a move like what happen if Qd4. grin.png
