Team match

Submitted by The_Pitts on Tue, 12/09/2008 at 7:50am.

I've created a team match, we'll be playing the dream team in a Grünfeld game. Hope every one has their  ünläüts on! It's going to be a tough match. We are way down on the ratings side but if we take our time and keep our position tight and our tactics sharp, I'm sure we can bring it.

So, my game is complete, except I played white lol.  I'm still not sure where black went wrong in this game however, I do know once the fianchetto'd bishop was traded off, white was able to get a nice attack on the king, but what went wrong before that point?

It certainly looks like a tough match. I have more experience playing KID, so this will be a learning experience!

yes ozzie that is correct.  One game at a time.

I was a member of the Dream Team previously, but I eliminated about half of my team memberships.

How do team matches work? Is it a 2 game match, our #1 against their #1, with the total points winner winning the match?

Well, it would be good to show support for the team.  This way, also you see the points that a more experienced Gruenfeld (sorry, no umlats! lol) player can demonstrate.

Awwr, I would love to play, but I find Grunfeld to be a completely different beast than the KID (what I play, keeping my d pawn happy at d6)
