I'm sure this happens to all of us. But during one of my turn-based games on this website I had a superfluous amount of material and got careless. I never even suspected what would happen next.


When the game ended I couldn't believe what had just happened. I had been tricked into a stalemate by minor pieces. All I have to say is well-played black.

Dang, that stinks!

But black played a horrible game excluding the last move, and only then eeked out a draw from a blunder.

Ha. Yea. I don't think that he studied the QGA because he fell for one of the oldest traps in the book by trying to hang onto his extra pawn.

The Fried Liver isn't a trap. The Lolli is more deadly than the Fried Liver. If you mean that 1400+ rated players play 5... Nxd5?!, then you are correct.
