When I was reading a chess tutor book, I learned of that move. I never knew about it till I read it but I didn't know it's name until now. When I saw the title, illegal move, I thought you were referring to that move.Foot in mouth Unfortunately you can only do en passant right after they moved beside you.

En Passant almost f****d me, but I managed to recover and get the W.

Good match Madman. Hope you're not losing too much sleep over move #20...oops :)

 Thanks everyone for your posts, however smart-assy they may have been ;)

Is it that nobody reads the posts before posting?

I've read "It's en passant" about a thousand times, even after aslalaji had understood, answered, posted the finished game, and probably forgotten about the matter. I wonder wether anyone will post after me, to say it again...
