Beat A National Master

Thanks, I've done it before as well.

g r e a t !!!

I asked, he said he thought there was a tactical combination that gave him the outpost.

Thanks!

lol, you couldn't have done better.

And here I am, still sitting at 1200 USCF.

RIP its ok, mate. You can do it too.

title should rather be blunder of NM

Well play SCM but... if you beating these guys pretty regular, why are you not master level too?!

Getting there slowly, mate.

Nkorea be like...

Well peoples not equal... because King is higher than knight and bishop is weirdo...

superchessmachine, the real question is if he hadn't resigned after he'd blundered, would you be able to pull out the win? Because honestly I think you just won because he blundered. Then again, I probably shouldn't be talking lol

I had that EXACT same thought. So I played it against Stockfish Level 10 and won.

Beat The National Rep

NM stands for Nobody Much...

Good game. I don't care how you legitimately won; a win is a win and that was a strong opponent. As of now, I've only beaten 1950-ish players in rated games, but never won against an opponent as high as what you just won there - good game  (although I have won a few against tougher opponents in unrated games). That was solid play on your part and the win was well earned. 

On a side note, what was this tactic that gives them the outpost I wonder? Whenever you sacrifice material, you must ask yourself: "What happens if my opponent takes it?" I think your opponent just dropped a piece and didn't want to admit it was that simple. xD
