Calling out to DreadedHermie for a game of "stoner chess"

[Weezard]

That helps, thanks. Every time I threw her in early da sharks chased her. I figgered if she just putta toe in da drink...

But she's so valuable it's a bargain for your opponent to sacrifice virtually any piece, and some combinations, to take her. Hard to defend against a sewer-side attack.

Better to immobilize, than capture her.
Usually less expensive too.

But the real lesson was.
Most opponents can not resist a queen sacrifice.
Even when they know it must be bait.
In this case, it set up a harmless looking pawn gambit.


Sorry, I shoulda been keeping up on the diagrams / pics as well...things were actually going good until the temporal deck started getting shuffled..but I got that new 'puter and half my crap's plugged into it, half into the old PC. Inconvenient till I get things settled in better. The only internet access is via the "work" computer 'cos Goddess needed the router in her lair.

Goddess turned into Queen Elizabeth for awhile, but she changed back, so I guess mine's not THAT strong.... :abduct:

B - KB5 check! And, yeah, I miscalled that other bishop move, too. :stoned:

K - QB3
Mahalo.
Gone need my king dere to Bus' up da pawn chain later.

Here's dat cricket-el move I was going on about.
Have at me!:rasta:


Aloha.
