Allowing your queen to be taken forcing to move your king was your first mistake... the second was not taking the bishop after he took yours, i didn't look after that.
Castle early. Check the safety of the piece you're moving, twice and take pieces when you're given the chance.
27 Jan '12 08:57Originally posted by tim88Well tbh any decent player is going to convert that game whether you take the bishop or not... a poor player though might mess up if you take the bishop. On first glance i don't see serious damage the knights can do within a couple of moves.
the 2 knights would of had me for breakfast - or did you see a way around that?
27 Jan '12 10:29Originally posted by Trev33but i can see the serious damage? i dont think this player would mess up and not see it.

27 Jan '12 12:06Originally posted by tim88I know but against guys on your level - take the bishop. People are generally bad at attacking and will give away pieces for free if you're patient and take care about your moves.

28 Jan '12 21:55Originally posted by tim88And how is being an extra piece down going to help with that?

And how is being an extra piece down going to help with that?
If you take the piece, it is likely that the two knights will have you for breakfast.
If you don't take the piece, it is certain that the two knights plus the free, gift bishop will have you for breakfast, lunch, tea and supper.
Take the piece.
Meanwhile, we still do chose it in the first place, seeing that it goes against most opening principles.
