This time I'm going with the Chess Bazaar german knight study set on the little Rechapados Ferrer 40mm square board. Good luck!

Interesting development in the game with @Krames 

 I am afraid @Krames has somekinda trap up his sleeve for me further into this position with his black pieces. 

Have a great day all of you 🙏

Krames
No trap at all. Just a blunder, excuses don’t matter in chess, just the moves. Good luck!!!

felonet vs stumOnner (white to move)

This is the gameplan I'm following:

White to move, I feel there *has* to be something here but I'm just not seeing it.

Fun game so far, I've been trying to increase aggression a bit, veering toward making threats more than consolidating a safe position.

SMinervino

Oh I see something...

felonet
@ksamrock I thought I saw something too - but look again…
SMinervino

I'm not seeing the issue. Please point it out. (They've already move on but what's the problem with Qxe7?)

felonet
That seems like a good idea. I was initially thinking check with the rook but I don’t think it can be finished from there
lotsoblots

Oh, I eventually moved Qxe7, but I wanted more. wink.png When I pushed the rook up to e4 I was hoping to swing it over to h4 and potentially mate that wide open king but in the end I couldn't find anything. Keep in mind that I had already given up my light squared bishop on h7 to take the pawn and expose the black king so, at the moment, white is down material.

Good game @felonet definitely learned that game and it's an honor to play on that set of yours. What's that set called? I like those knights and rooks. @lotsoblots I was also thinking qxe7 to a piece up at first glance.

Me and @lotsoblots  allready discussed a similar move. It would only force a queen trade. But the game became even more interesting after this position. But white is a pawn up

I think you are right about that. It would give him +3

New set coming my way very soon. I Just had to buy it. It is used but it has so much value for me. The simpson was one of my favourite cartoons in my teens. Excited to set up games and post here 😄🥳

 




stumOnner

@squar3z this looks like a fun set to play on this post!!

GGs @squar3z, I thought for sure that was heading toward a draw. Anyway, turns out that there WAS a winning move on that image I posted in #189 but *not at all* on my radar, d4!! I'm glad I'm at least sensing something even if I can't see it through. wink.png

It could have been draw. But I made a big blunder leaving my pawn unprotected. Well played and it was a Nice game
