CP6033 vs. solskytz

#59 

I see Na3 was played at 6.

A bit late :(

20:30 gmt is that in twenty minutes?

It is. I wasn't sure I thought it was in 1 hour and 20 minutes, but we'll see. I can play either time.

I wish you more success than the CP6033-SmyslovFan match. It went only one game, which was drawn. He was unable to make the scheduled time for the second game, and we never were able to reschedule it.

To be fair tho, I came prepared with an unusual opening idea, and CP completely outplayed me despite never having seen it before. I was lucky to get a draw. He probably would have won the match.

Lol-I was thinking the other day of hopefully continuing that match. Things got very busy for me, but I'd totally be up for it if you're interested. 

That said one match at a time is probably wise.

20:30 GMT is in 1h because it's 20:30 here right now in CET zone.

Oh yeah, I was thinking 19:30 GMT

i hate these weeks going from summer to wintertime. Will it be possible to follow the game live?

Yes!! starting in 45 minutes. 

<SmyslovFan> you give the impression of a very decent player - but CP is pretty dangerous too.

See you in the playing zone!

How can i find the game?

I like this idea of live amateur matches.

Can I find one?

When's the CP6033 vs. Robert0905 BULLET match gonna happen?

Robert, sorry, was using mobile.

Good game guys. It was a repetition move 60, but still no problems for either side.

Thanks MSC :-) 

Actually Caleb was posing quite a number of subtle problems, which I had to use some ingenuity to solve this game. 

For starters, I'm not familiar with a move 3. Nf3 in this opening :-) People generally play either d4 or c4. Maybe I should answer 3...Bg4 right away, before taking back on d5?

In case I do, we can get something of a Gruenfeld if I later continue with my ...g6, ...Bg7 and ...c5 ideas... funny! An e4 opening turning into a d4 opening (except for the fact that central pawns have been exchanged...)

It's a whole story, MSC... but let's say that it wasn't easy. The guy knows how to put the pressure - and when you pressure him, he doesn't lose his cool, but actually knows a thing or two about defensive play...

Game two: tomorrow night, at 00:00 GMT - which is one in the morning here in Belgium, but for Caleb it will be only 20:00 PM up there in Canada.

It was a weird opening. I felt like I should've been able to put more pressure in the rook ending, but wasn't able to, I guess I'll blame it on the clock! More analysis to follow!

I missed something very convincing. Hint. Bxb7 was a mistake.

Are you going to post the game here?

I meant in the endgame. Unfortunately couldn't watch the whole game, only the last 15 moves. But I quickly went through afterwards. Seemed pretty even all the time, although I prefered white's position at some point. :-)
