Fun times in the exchange French
A game played today against a higher rated opponent... EDIT: it's supposed to be Autumn not Spring :/ Sleepy mistake
Accused of Cheating in Online Chess
So in a recent tournament game I was accused of cheating and my opponent resigned after 19 moves, just when I started cooking up a dangerous attack. He also resigned in our other game without playing a move. In my opinion the game was just theory...
Inter-Regional Final
So we played Sydney Boys A and won 4-0 :DI played a 700+ guy on board 4:
Everyday I'm Shufflin'... my rooks
Two games played aeons ago. Game 1: Against someone I previously lost to in the after school comp. Game 2: A 600-ish guy who said the that fact I'm 800 was bs. He also looked very confident, which he had the right to do because I carelessly dro...
Titled Scalp
I recently played an online tournament game against IM Thomas Rendle (Trendle), and won after he made a blunder late in the game. This is now my second titled scalp after beating an NM before but I can't dig that game out right now... Analysis by ...
Solid 500
Semi's against Knox, lost 2.5 - 1.5 Boards 1 and 2 lost, 3 drew and I won.
An Interesting Mate
I take back what I've said, my connection's now fine again, and I recently played a live game which looks quite similar to a familiar opening trap...
Quitting live
The title says it all. I'm now quitting live chess because my connection always makes me lose or have to refresh the page every 10 seconds to check if my opponent's made a move yet. In bullet I've lose 100+ points by outplaying most opponents and ...
Tournament summary
Came equal first in a fun tournament today featuring 150 ish players :DHad to beat the guy who was owning the tournament in the last round as well but pretty much everyone else I played (bar my only loss) was rated more than 200 below me... Round...
Too easy
Today was the last round of the interschools comp and my team's won our division. In this game I finished him within 10 minutes.
Round Sechs
This time I played a guy who just randomly sacced a knight on f2 without provocation and played the middlegame, effectively, the exchange up. Then he started blundering the game away...
A Strong Positional Bind
So I should be doing work but I don't have anything due tomorrow since I have essentially 3 periods of science and 4 periods of sport... Anyhow, I played an online game against a friend recently, and thoroughly enjoyed it :D
Terrible day
So I had an absolutely horrible day today... The French exchange, then I get to win a pawn but touch a rook by accident but I somehow make it look like I meant to do it all along to try and cover up my blunder but he saw it anyway... And somehow I...
i really shouldnt be posting this
im still shocked at my failure to completely refute his opening system...
Otb Otb Otb Otb
More otb...
We all love easy otb games right?
So in the after school comp today I played a relatively easy game where my opponent lost a piece really early... For interest's sake board 1 lost on time, board 2's opponent never turned up and board 3 missed around 4(?) chances to KO the opponen...
Why did I time out?
So I recently timed out in FOUR TOURNAMENT GAMES which cost me 52 rating points and I'm pretty pissed. I checked last night at 9pm and there were no tourney games but today, at 8:10 pm, I saw that I timed out in 4 of them. HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE?! A...
Arrogance? I think not!
So today at lunchtime I played a friendly match against a friend and as the bell rang I achieved what I thought to be a completely winning position (with mate threats). He completely disagreed and said my bishop was hanging (which it was, but he d...
