Thoughts??

Well then.  That was Erik's point of view.  How about yours?  Or, are you saying Erik speaks for you? 

That's all good as well. 

Personally? ha, I would think I would cheat somehow....and still lose. 

January was a weird month for me...

I think it is an interesting idea. Probably not worth the money for the novelty though.

En passant?

It could be a cool board on say, a coffee table?   I didn't catch how much it was worth tho.  I wouldn't pay for it.  You can send it to me for a Christmas present though...Better start saving!

There is enough room between pieces for that.

hey yea...how about castling as well?

He's hiding the rook under the sleeve, the sneaky guy!

I knew it!

For a second I thought the move was illegal before realizing the trick!

You should see his other moves

Yeah like that queen sack. Amazing.

Thing is about that queen sack...did you see the knight take one for good ol whitey?? In order for that queen sack to actually happen?

The setup was ALMOST perfect, I agree. His slight of hand with that one ALMOST had me fooled. He had to turn 3.2817 degrees clockwise to perfect it, but I won't judge.

How could ya judge?  I wonder if his nickname is fast hands mcgee. 

I watched and re-watched more than once. 

Turns out there was the slightest show during the queen sack one... we must be thinking of different tricks... 

Bahahahahaha!!!! Well, a trick is still a trick.  Some just aren’t as obnoxious as the other.
