The flow of the posts got a bit confused with everyone replying at once to different points so I reposted a combination of three posts for clarity. Rather than appear to be repeating myself I thought I'd just stick in a 😕

I know one thing -- he utterly DESTROYED me the two games I played with him. The only other times (barring egregious opening blunders) I got spanked quite THAT hard were against the po and mephisto.

Game 447288

As you can see, black has a won game. It was only out of a rare bit of end game vision on my behalf that i sneaked a draw. I think it is quite plain to see that if he had been using a program, it would have forced a win, no worries.
Yes. Quite odd that I would play speculative crap before I became a member and much better afterwards. I'm starting to suspect myself. 🙂

BTW, if anyone wants to see me get spanked, just have a look at the elite tournaments (Elite I and II). I'm not exactly having an easy time with Akizy, seadevil, diogenes, et al. I guess my coffee house style isn't so great against the big boys. Maybe it's time to study the endgame again. 🙁 (and the opening and the middlegame too)

Oddly enough, Breace just returned I think... she wasn't active for such a long time and then just yesterday started making moves again... go figure.

Pardon me for being not quite on-topic (as usual), but I enjoyed playing through the AsianRose games. She was good right off the bat here, but seems to have left the site at the start of this year.
