What I have been up too for the past few weeks.

Some RHP games using the Aitken Variation.

The ‘Hall of Doom’ re-appears. I’m in it... and so is Aitken.
Also an RHP player makes a mistake that must be nigh impossible
to make in an O.T.B. game. (unless of course anyone knows better.)

Black to play - what happened next?

HI Larry-Wright,

It's not polka dot, I cut loads of wee holes in it to make it look polka dot.

I actually guessed correct here. (The hint made it quite obvious)

Thahnk you for the nice Analysis you gave on the Aitken game. I can't imagine to find something like that in any way. Even if asked no to replicate this I couldn't do that.
