To ...[text shortened]... st I'm not sure whether this has made things better or worse for you.
This was a masterful opening by white which clearly showed that they meant business by playing ruthless attacking chess.
Many thanks for posting the game. I will need to use that opening in the future.

Originally posted by adramforallThat is an interesting analysis. It looked to me like black got outplayed by good technique in the ending and played on when a clear draw was staring him in the face. Perhaps that is a symptom of lack of practice with complex endings - technique smashes bare tactics.

Originally posted by st40Think again he's gone. Player banned from site. It was a 3c violation for persistently harrassing himself. Apparently he was convinced he was a returning Paul Morphy and not Leggett and wouldn't let it go.
I don't think Paul's post was removed, I think he typed exactly what is still there, sat back, opened a six pack and watched to see what developed....
