i don't think that was greedy? Those moves were pretty much forced.
Greed = Loss
Sort:
did not want to sac queen for knight and rook....i think this was greed. move 34.
wanting to keep queen. i tried this line on this player cause i figured this is exactly what he would do. try to keep his queen. never work on a more experienced player though....that's my whole point. queen envy. lesson to beginners. thats all. : )
If 32... Rxg4 (Black would be ahead). It is a good game.

yes i considered that as well while playing.... but the current point I'm trying to make is about the other decision made.... thanks for the comment.

I agree with what you mean, and I would call it ignorance more than greed. At this point clearly black should simplify to a winning end game while reducing threats on his king. Good job staying with the fight all4one.
yes ignorance indeed....i used the word "greed" to get peoples attention to this posting. trying to help beginners with this example.
excuse me!?? when i decide to take a pawn that seems to have a sting, i might be greedy, but if i am clever i might just get away with it... i agree that keeping your material at all costs bad greed, but taking your opponents material is not bad greed, it's greed that resembles bravery more than carelessnes.
Here is a game I just finished with a 1300-1400 rated player! I blundered queen with mouse slip. Opponent could have easly won the game but look at what happens.....
