Lots of forum topics ask how to become better. I enjoy being a dodgy amateur, makes for exciting games. The romantic era lives.....

Yes, absolutely! That's genuinely hilarious. Thanks for sharing it.

Illegal checkmate - the White Queen and King should have been flagged for being offside. Great King run!

Your opponent's first and 3rd moves were a terrible choice; black's equivalent of the Fool's Mate. If you opened by moving the e pawn out then you could have won in 4 moves.

Lol your right it makes games exciting (I've never seen GMs play with so much action behind enemy lines!) but useless to analyse and try to predict what they will play next.

Funny game!

The beginning reminds me of playing again the computer here on chess.com. Too often it's so easy to walk up with a pawn taking so many pieces.

Geez.. to paraphrase a prominent, recently dead, jedi: "Amazing. Everything you just said was wrong."

Dutch may not be the cookiecutter defense. But it is servieable. And the variation black played isn't bad. He should have played Bg7 in the fourth move though.

Have a nice day all.
