Post your best miniatures here

Wow well played! Great control over the opening and the transition to the middlegame and endgame

not really a miniature tho

two moves over but too nice to resist

performance rating of 2300

I really liked the way you played that. I have so much to learn

Not even close to being a miniature.

Some players have problems with English, chess terms, or even common sense.

"Miniature" is not a set term, some people may take it as <20 moves or <25 or even <30. It's rather subjective.

Yah, in this thread it's pretty lenient and under 30 is considered on topic.

Agreed, the first definition I've ever heard is actually 20 moves or less, but I'm all for it being more liberal as long as we get great games.

i took it as 25, and i apologise if you had it as 20

Don't apologize, I just said that that's the first definition I've ever come across. I've come across others since, I was trying to point out that there are many, that it's not universally agreed upon and that we shouldn't be too strict about it.

why was the page empty

oh nvm

This is the GREATEST MINIATURE OF ALL TIME. I find it hard to believe it actually happened. It wasn't hyperbullet, the time control was ONE DAY PER MOVE

Tarrasch Defence. I guess 4.dxc5 d4 is some kind of a gambit line for black.

Nice game. Maybe white didn't see 13...Bb2 either, as after you kick the bishop with the knight, he goes all the way back to c1.

New Highest Accuracy OTB Game (96.9)

P.S. I'm incredibly underrated in ECF
