Originally posted by hammster21Yeah, sorry about that. I was looking at the way the pairings were posted, and it threw me.
hmm... and here i thought i was black and i was playing the French defense, maybe it's some sort of variation with white that i've never heard of, yes that must be it.

Originally posted by ih8sensFirst of all, I don't use databases. Secondly, d4 was the new idea. d3, Nbd2 is usually seen in a KIA formation. And, prior to d4, the move order was a KIA for White. I'm only slightly familiar with the Reti, unless you are telling me that's what I've been playing all these years. I do on occasion transpose from KIA to Enlgish, however.
yah, I pulled him out of the book as quickly as possible. Databases are too equalizing.

Originally posted by AlphaAlekhineI believe I was on the road to victory in my game anyway. The timeout was the easy way to end it sooner.

Originally posted by Patzergrlthat's assuming you don't understand the moves your making. Otherwise, your making the 'best' move, because your making the move of a 2700 player.
Databases are anything but equalizing..more then anything they lead people down the wrong road
two 2700 players play a fairly equal game. therefore, databases are equalizing.
