Forcing a remise

Sort:
SunnyDay_TheAlmighty

Hello,

a few minutes ago I did a game against someone with much more points and almost impossible to win for me. So I tried something and started the game with strange pawn-moves, didn't think about a plan just to see the way the game goes with this unusual opening.

With archiving the left side almost without his pawns and positioning my queen there I could force a remise, the best possible win for me as a chess beginner. I guess he was thinking the guy has way less points and doing strange moves. Having this he was focussing only on his queen forgetting his king. I just needed one move before he started to attack my king and I've got it.

So I was using his faults and the limited possibilities to force the opponent into a remise. How do you think about this?

That's actually pretty cool, obviously he could have stopped it initially with h3 but you did well to find that.

@y really? I didn't see he had the possibility to escape from the "deadlock", with H3?

Before he moved his queen away, should have made that clearer.

ok, I understand, yep, the queen moved away was the trigger. Thx for your input!

Actually I think the best second move would have been PXP, If he doesn't move 3 pawn to g3 you move queen to H4 check and he is in a world of hurt!
