I cant figure specifically how to load games on this bastard server, however this was pretty cool. I had about an 8 move combo and what I call a reverse blunder with the queen on a5 I pretended to make a dumb move but I was all for the set up. Once he took my knight, I set up a rook capture/bishop sac. Pretty good for my rating I guess

Sorry I'm new to the blog. So move 13 was made to look like a blunder. Once he took nc3, I purposely lined up pawns at c,d, and e to bring his queen out. Once I saw his bishop come out on ...12, I knew QA5 would bring out the pawn. I had to be patient because of the trapped bishop. Once I got him to commit his knight ...17 nd7, I knew game was over since nd5+ would trap his king in the back ranks

Alright. This kind of trap looks clever but its actually garbage and is refuted like this:

Usually you shouldnt rely on traps too much but thiis one was probably good because its hard to see the refutation. P.S nice username lol

A resounding success for my new weapon against the Najdorf:

Pretty dang nice. My rook feels the pain for black

More 7.Qe2 Najdorf fun. It's a ply too long, but I hope Barefoot_Player doesn't mind too much.

Still playing for tricks lately. I played h4 just to prevent Kingside castling and then I tried to keep the Queenside messy so my opponent wouldn't want to castle there, and what should have happened was this dance where neither player could castle (if I castle my trap goes away and h4 just looks silly,) and we try to find useful moves, but instead my opponent castled into it.

How often do you get to play a miniature against the impossible?
