Sorry for being away.  Did you mean "Bd7xb5?"  You've got a pawn on e7.

Edit: Arrg,. I should have gone for d5 instead , oh well.

[Corgatha Taldorthar]

The1Kobra:
Yeah, but you had to have done it before you played Be2, or I could play Re4. Back on move 17 you would have nailed me good though.

[Noone]

Actually, I just dropped a piece... I resign.

[Corgatha Taldorthar]

Are you certain you want to resign? You can play Qxe6, something takes the queen, and then hxg to have a piece and a rook for the queen. Not great, but not resignworthy........

[Noone]

I've done some calculations and just about every move I play now loses. I would rather not drag on a piece-down grind with no compensation.

I came up with some lines, none of them go anywhere.
Qxe6, Bxe6,.... and I'm down a Queen for a Rook with no compensation
Ba5, Qxa5, Qb4, Qxb4, xb4, Rxe2,.... down 2 pieces.
Qd3, Bf5, I lose the queen by force.
It's a lost cause, I made a critical error in not playing d5 sooner to give myself some space. I'm kind of upset that I didn't see such a simple thing.
Regardless, I would be up for another game, you can have white this time.

this kind of chess can play but i can't just visualize the moves like you all were doing.

[llearch n'n'daCorna]

Visualize? Who's visualizing?

I'm pretty sure you'll find that most, if not all of us, are sitting here with our own chessboards set up.

I know _I_ was.

[e_voyager]

my chess boards lack the coordinate  markings. (and i have three)

[llearch n'n'daCorna]

... so set one up, put the pieces on it, and write the letters and numbers down the side. It's not rocket science... ;-]
