No it isnt a joke and if you look at HorsesGalore's rating he has a much higher rating than you so just be quiet and be nice.

I thought by the heading it was going to be an earth shattering move that would change the face of chess forever. Instead, it was just a discovered attack.

You cannot be S-E-R-I-O-U-S !  Smile

Black could have played 18...Qxd1 then 19...hxg6, with Rook and Bishop for the Queen - relatively equal.

Nobody is ever nice anymore.

Only HorsesGalore is a nice person here.

I'm nice too, VeryMerryAiry.

Don't call me that.

I also played a good opening if you look at the game.

Great sacrifice! Bg6 is indeed a very hard-to-find move and is a very imaginative sacrifice! Your opening was also very good.

AiryNeon

Here, is this earth-shattering enough for you?

Thanks Robert_New_Alekhine!

Very nice move!

I think black has to give up the queen on d4.

I think black best move in that position would be 18...hxg6.

However, after 19.Rxd4  Rxd4  20.Rd1 white should have a winning advantage with best play.

R and B for Q is fairly equal, decent imagination for maybe a 1 minute game.. speaking of which how long was the game?

reading the intent of 27 b5 was good play snuff out counterplay before moving in for the win

It was a 5/0 game.

It was clever actually. I didn't see it. I just saw the pawn grab . Had a lot of solid moves. Didn't fall for the move 22 Bd6 or the bishop block after Ng4, clever stuff.
